You Fade to the Past

written about that one person who inspires the sadness, and the new person who inspires happiness.

Tears fall like rain,
My heart broken all over again;
This never ending pain,
I'm tired of being stuck in the same place I've always been.

I want to run far away,
Leave this false love behind;
You tell me to stay,
But I've got somewhere else in mind.

That place is with his love,
Where his arms wrap around me;
Compared to you he is much higher above,
With him is the only place I want to be.

Slowly the image of your face starts to fade,
From my heart, from my mind, from my life;
The tears no longer cascade,
I drop the blood-soaked knife.

And he smiles,
Making my heart skip a beat;
Forever I would follow him, mile after mile,
As he sweeps me off my feet.

I knew that one day,
My happiness would come at last;
And with every 'I love you' I hear him say,
The further away you fade to the past.
