You Gave Me Strength Again
I wrapped up your memories in the quilts
Surrounded by the scent of your hair
And the stinging feeling of guilt
I see your hair flowing all around
And you don't even make a sound
But the first impression had me so captivated
Another day behind my former self
And another night with my true identity
Gathering dust on the shelf
I wanna reach out to touch you baby
But I haven't been able to find myself.....and lately
I've found all my attempts at loving you negated
(Chorus)
I'm standing in the distance
Standing on the cold streets alone
I've loved you for such a long time
I only wish you could have known
A touch of confusion and the bitter distaste
And enough painful memories I just wanna erase
And I'm struggling to find it in my heart to fight
And came soon enough that I realized
You were always someone I needed
In my life
Right here right now this distance is getting larger
And in this moment being away from your voice
Is only getting harder.
But I'll never forget how far you've come with me
And now someday you'll finally see
That I'm making a vow for you....for us tonight!
(Chorus)
I'm standing in the distance
Standing on the cold streets alone
I've loved you for such a long time
I only wish you could have known
I'm sorry that it didn't end up the way we dreamed
But I know that we really did believe
Sometimes love can work in funny ways and when it comes to you
I've never given up this chance, to say that I love you
