Keep Me Longing

Don't give up my dear
We built this road together
My heart starts breaking
But together we will fall
Don't give up my dear
As lonely nights keep holding you tight
Forget we've ever parted
Forget we'll never come back home

And so I thought nothing could keep us apart
And if something did, I didn't think it'd be you
And then I came back to the place we first met
I could hear my heart breaking
And I hope yours will too one day

Don't give up my dear
Our dreams of endless summers
You try to disappear
But just want to be found
Don't give up my dear
As my heart still beats your name
Loving you was like going to war
I never came back home the same

Perhaps it was too little, too late
We were already too broken, too hurt
But I want to thank you for a thousand kisses
That I can still feel on my face
I thought I had forgotten all about you
But here I am, calling your name again
You still live inside of me
And I'm cursed to carry you, wherever I go

Maybe someday we'll be two people
Meeting again for the very first time
Time has taught us we've always been strangers
But in another life I'm sure I'd make you stay
...at least another night
...another day

I tried so hard to save you
I tried so hard to save me
Save us from the maelstrom of time
Save us from the great cold nothing

Then all the love has been forgotten
In times of furor and fear
May you find peace now
As well as me
These nights were ours, but I failed you
Our "almost" will always haunt my dreams
