My Memory

If I said the words you wanted me to say
Would you still be here today
If the words you said to me were meant as true
Was turning away the only thing to do

The reflection that I see looking back at me
Doesn't remind me of who he used to be
The face that shows doesn't seem to be quite true
It was once familiar, when it knew you

Another place, another moment in time
A few more right words spoken and you might still be mine
When I close my eyes, I can still feel your kiss upon my lips, tenderly
Then you quickly disappear again into My Memory

There's a difference in letting go and saying goodbye
One might be forever, the other just a little while
Trying to figure out which one to choose
Is never easy, but it's up to you

Another place, another moment in time
A few more right words spoken and you might still be mine
When I close my eyes, I can still feel your kiss upon my lips, tenderly
Then you quickly disappear again into My Memory

Turning the page, another chapter in life's book
Looking over your shoulder, just to take one more look
To second guess is human, when it comes to the heart
Knowing if it's right or wrong, is still the hardest part

So, the question to stay or go, or try again
Remains to be answered as you begin
A heart is fragile, but strong and true
Never forget what it pulled you through

If I said the words you wanted me to say
Would you still be here today
