I've never tasted tears these before And though they are the I have known Their simple cause is but one of joy For now it seems I may not be Upon earth as I have been 'til now A truly twist of fate For I had given up on Especially myself, and it late Too for any soul to cast a line His hook hit the ice and snap in two But someone blew a kiss and his breath Unfroze what ne'er a fire could do An now is mine and from the start I knew I was bound to let him in But while I smile I weep I know That something ends so this can begin God, what a fool am I, or am I For years have I kept hidden in my The of one who never had been more But whom I wrote and set apart From other men, never did I tell My feelings, nay, but used him as a An inspiration, to adore But rarely did I on what I'd lose If ever my were replaced By someone living, breathing, warm and For I pledged my life to him in song The same for me I knew he did not If I tell the truth, I'd say I planned To go on in fashion for all time I didn't he couldn't care for me As long as I own him in each rhyme And have someone to think each night torment after torment wracked my soul To in sorrow, bathe in pain's delight To fill my pages was my goal the day I dared to call it love For love was the only I had known And somehow I could the rest away For in my mind I never was And thus in love, though with a specter, I did expect, nor wish, nor care To take another in holy place Though in my I knew no one was there Yay, in my mind, but not so in my I loved, I swear I loved, else why pain of my will I opened up the door And swept the where I swore hed remain And something dies me as I sweep As new is born in every tear Past years of memories I to keep A that I both long for and fear There really was no question when it shooting star, both fire and gentleness Who never gave me time to my choice But made my his own with each caress For once and once I did not think Where I feel and for that I was proud But it was one thing to enact the And else to say the word aloud For once I had, I a shadow fade Which over me had hung for all these And no loss in all the world could match The sense of someone with my tears I known 'til then how lost I was Enveloped in this mist of my So much of me my muse had become That in my eyes no star was seen to Unless it bore of my phantom's light Or carried of music in the beams my soul was open to the view No man could enter, except in my Its over now and I am not I full well what I am meant to do But late at when I recall my muse I cry for us as though he knew That I had waited to hear my name Once spoken as it should have been Id there still but someone real appeared And the heart no man could hope to win If to my I'd ever said hello It might not hurt this much to say But there is tragic in this scene Which may as joyous to the eye Of who witnesses myself Bound in the and lips of my new friend Completed in a way never been And healing I thought would never mend The that shattered my reality The soul I dreamed but never Id meet And now I look back except in dreams Yet when I do the pain is always For pain can show me who I was And from that girl to me how Ive grown Ive never tasted tears like before And yes, they are the I have known
