Tender Surrender - Steve Vai

About a girl whom i knew years* ago.

this is,

Tears Soaked Pillow.

slowly, drowning in this
nightmare of reality, of
a promise I once broke.

It's been years since that day.
winter passes, spring comes. you go.
so many songs you don't know,
that sings your name in everyday pain.
it may seem easy for me,
putting a smile over all these
countless tears that fall inside,
tonight, like every other;
I reminisce about it all over again,
my tears soaked pillow.

I want to hold you once again before this heart stops.
I want to kiss you over again before this life ends.
I need you to believe in ourselves all over again.
a good bye isn't what I need,
the story that was never told,
this dream that ended too early.
reminds me slowly of this pain and sorrow
that narrates the mistake that was made years ago.

It's been long since we last met.
build walls, crumble, always.
deeper than words, deeper pain,
(I love you) isn't what I want to say.
you don't stand before me. so
I imagine and arms around emptiness.
I would only seem crazy to you.
dawn comes, like every other;
I reminisce about it all over again,
my tears soaked pillow.

I want to hold you once again before this heart stops.
I want to kiss you over again before this life ends.
I need you to believe in ourselves all over again.
a good bye isn't what I need,
the story that was never told,
this dream that ended too early.
reminds me slowly of this pain and sorrow
that narrates the mistake that was made years ago.

I feel you but I can't hold you.
I miss those lips I can't kiss. [enviously]
now you're with someone else, you're happy.
It's ironic how the sweet past can hurt so much.

I want to hold you once again before this heart stops.
I want to kiss you over again before this life ends.
I need you to believe in ourselves all over again.
a good bye isn't what I need,
the story that was never told,
this dream that ended too early.
reminds me slowly of this pain and sorrow
that narrates the mistake that was made years ago.

I want to hold you once again before this heart stops.
I want to kiss you over again before this life ends.
I need you to believe in ourselves all over again.
a good bye isn't what I need,
the story that was never told,
this dream that ended too early.
reminds me slowly of this pain and sorrow
that narrates the mistake that was made years ago.

my tears soaked pillow.
my tears soaked pillow.
this tears soaked pillow.
