mend ur heart, oui be, 2008

how can I mend your heart
drowned in uncertainty
I know not where to start
my world crumbles
flood gates come apart
oh to rock you in my arms again

tender soul of my love
cut deep with the wounds of war
I would take of my gloves
to give you shelter from the storm

just to dry your tears
just to kiss your lips
oh to rock you in my arms again

oh how can I
hold in check my fire
in the face of the well know foe
when your anger grows

how can I mend your heart
when I'm coming back too strong
the inept actor in my part
could never show me how I'm wrong

when I see your crying eyes
and I feel the burning on my cheek
as I squander the life that flies
I am struck by mortality

I must ask myself
why can't we
learn to love the very thing that we share
my pride is not too big to regret
it must be easier to care

oh how can I
hold in check my fire
in the face of the well know foe
when your anger grows

how can I mend your heart
