I couldn't save you

by Meet Me On Thames Street   Oct 16, 2007


Silent tears slide down your face
I reach out,
but I'm a million miles away.
I want to take your pain away
and shield you from those things they say.
But your not the only one I couldn't save,
Couldn't shield your eyes,
couldn't block the pain.
all around us love grows and dies,
but only we cant avert our eyes
can't smile back,
can't hide the pain.
that's one thing I wish I could have changed
could have blocked the blow,
could have saved the day.
But as usual I arrived too late
to stop the crash,
to stop the hate.
but at least there is one thing I can say
I have felt your pain,
I have cried your tears,
and I have felt those crazy doubts and fears.
but please just close your eyes
take my hand,
and just fly.
