Ice

And now, and now you go

into the snow, into the storm of snow.

And now, and now you say

we end today, we end our love today.

But I won’t let you leave me

out here, in the cold, winter night

where tears, running down, turn to ice.

Hiding, me away, from your sight,

you say, we’re to high, of a price

And the best for us depends on you

taking the warmth away,

And leaving only cold behind

to remind me of your stay

And now, and now I cry.

Please tell me why, you never told me why.

And now, and now I know.

Died long ago, our love died long ago.

But I won’t let you hurt me.

I must, must have known, all along.

Its time, I move on, make a vow,

And learn, learn to heal, to be strong.

No one, will I let, hurt me now.

And the best for my life depends on

thawing the pain away,

and letting Flowers grow from Ice,

making the most of the day.
