If you knew that I cried myself to sleep every night

Will you take me to the place where the sun shines?

Where the children laugh instead of cry?

Where there is not a fear of pain or hatred we feel?

Will you hold me in your arms at our childhood place

And tell me you love me one more time

And if we stand on the lake with the sunset behind us

Will you kiss me once again?

And sing the song we danced to in the summer nights

When we didn't hurt each other or ourselves

Just forget the words we screamed at each other

All these months ago when the scars of our loss were fresh

Can we forget the scars and remember the roses?
