The Farthest Shore

I took the rose from her hand As red as blood flowing through my veins I trembled in the darkness As she kissed me in the rain
It was so long ago I packed my bags And set out from that place With all that rain pouring down You never saw the tears on my face
And now I sit here and I wonder On the banks of the farthest shore As I look out across the ocean Can I do this anymore
I can’t follow all my dreams And keep on trying to follow you It’s hard enough on one of us It’s double the pain for two
But I just don’t know how to let you go And I’m just too scared to try Every time I think of being without you I just break down and cry
So every day I spin in circles Waiting for the world to come Crashing down upon my head And I think of all the things you said
I will love you forever No matter where you are or what you do I’m waiting for our day together I will always wait for you
Oh I miss you so I need you here For love is ours alone to share But you put your life aside for me And that just isn’t fair
And now I sit here and I wonder On the banks of the farthest shore As I look out across the ocean Can I do this anymore I can’t follow all my dreams And keep on trying to follow you It’s hard enough on one of us It’s double the pain for two
But I just don’t know how to let you go And I’m just too scared to try Every time I think of being without you I just break down and cry
She took the rose from my hand As red as blood flowing through my veins I trembled in the darkness As I kissed her in the rain
