I remember when you were yesterday
We were today, and prayed to God that tomorrow would never find me without you
I remember how your eyes called out to me in such a way that I thought
"Surely, in these stars in which I gaze I have found heaven"
So I thought...
You've forsaken me
Abandon me to an abyss, and what's more
Why?!
Don't you know that not even death can keep apart this that God has made?
Why do you run from me?
Running is futile
For you are mine
Fashioned from my rib, clothed from my skin
From me you drew your first breath
From you I learned love, tasted love!
And now you would have me to hunger?
Never!
To be without you is to waste away into nothing
How could you think that I would let my heart escape me without a fight?
Don't you know that without you I am not whole, void of substance, a shell?
I will not be forsaken!
There aren't enough locks to shut me out
There is no place to put me that I cannot escape
For you see,
I reside within your heart, and you are in my blood
To call your name is to beckon me
How could you leave me ?
Look me in my eyes and tell me you no longer love me
That you want more, if there is a such thing
Because in you I have all that I could ever want or need
From you I could never be free
Nor would I desire
