Tell me not to love you, br Tell me not to care, br Tell me not to want you br When I see you standing there br With eyes so full of sadness, br With arms that ache to hold, br With lips that beg for kisses br And endearments left untold; br br How can I never touch you? br How can I never know br Again that tender passion - br How can I let it go? br That other half of everything br That I have finally found - br The mirror of my spirit br That my heart is wrapped around; br br Just tell me how to do this, br Just tell me how to start, br Just tell me how I'm going br To survive with half a heart - br If you know the answer br And if you really care br Then pretend it doesn't matter br When you see me standing there; br br Whatever your emotion, br Whatever face you wear br You'll see in my reflection br For we're two halves of a pair; br How sad to find the spirit br That compliments your soul br And never get the chance br To blend the halves into the whole; br br Next time I will find you br After darkness turns to light - br Next time we'll remember br And next time we'll get it right!br br Linda Oribr br
