My Very Sweet Friend

Last night, alone in the basement I thought about what you've said,
And I shudder to think it just disappears.
Was it all in my head?
I don't know.
I've never been certain of anything in my twenty-eight years.
I don't know.

But the silence it kills me and so I will
drift away from the pain; I've no patience.
Darlin', I'm weak and I'm afraid I can't sustain.
My heart is yellow as the desert flower.
I know I'm a coward.
I can't face this damn situation.
I'll try to forget all the sweet things you've said.

Love will be the death of me.

And intentions don't cover reality;
We're torn apart by selfish desires.
There's a force that drew us together.
I knew we were playing with fire.
You're bound to get burned when you stand
so close to such a powerful thing as love.

Love will be the death of me.

My heart is yellow as the desert flower.
I know I'm a coward.
Still, I long for two arms to hold me that won't let go.
Still, I thank you.
Thanks for the feelings, my very sweet friend.
I wish you the happiest end.
