Before you go

Before you go,

hold me close again.

Before you go,

make me feel like we’re a whole for a moment more.

Before you go,

help me understand how we fell out of love.

Before you go,

give us a chance.

Before you go,

think twice about it.

Before you go,

kiss my forehead as you did before...

As you did before our love ran dry like bones,

As you did before our words to each other were sweet.

As you did before...

when you & I were in love - which feels like years ago.

Before you go,

think of me.

Of us.

Before you go,

give a chance

at loving me again.

Before you go,

sing the lullaby of love to me.
