We're trying to hold on to this love fading away. Catch me and hold me if deep down you want it to be this way. I beg you not to let me go, yet your staring me in the face while I'm slipping away. Please, just le me see hope. Hope, where has it gone. You, you were there all the time and I see you now, where have you gone. Am I not your focus have you tossed me to the side. Am I now your trash or not uet that. I see you as your sweater that you once loved so much. You have had it for a while but the closet it must go. Everytime you choose another shirt or a different jacket my color continues to fade away like my eyes on those lonely days. My pride, my soul, me, I hurt. And then that lucky day comes where you open the door then pull me off the shelf. I'm skeptical and don't know what to expect. All of a sudden, but it never fails, you lay me back down. Ones time is precious, that I have learned. If nothing else I take this away. Me, me. Why not me? A question that I asked. A little of your time is what I needed, wanted, and longed for. Now, I realize, you have let me slip away and I'm falling down. Day after day, do you see me because it seems you don't want to stay. Its like trying to walk up and the stairs are moving down. Where is the switch. I didn't know I had turned it around. And me now, as low as the ground. How much longer will it take to turn this frown into a smile.
