Before You Leave

[VERSE] I walked through shadows, I lost my way I miss you, I miss you, I miss you But it’s too late to say Each memory, a photograph I can’t erase 'Cause now that you’re gone I’m haunted by the love that I couldn't embrace [Chorus] When pain lies hidden beneath Like cold streams flowing deep No cure for this, it seems So, before you leave Was there a phrase to stop the ache? It burns me how your thoughts made you feel so misplaced So, before you leave [Verse] Time slipped away, with every call I missed Piece by piece, by piece until our chances ceased Each memory, I relive every day But all I see now is the sorrow I brought to your face [Chorus] When pain lies hidden beneath Like cold streams flowing deep No cure for this, it seems So, before you leave Was there a phrase to stop the ache? It burns me how your thoughts made you feel so misplaced So, before you leave [Bridge] Could we have thrived, could we have known? Had I let my heart be shown? Perhaps it’s past, perhaps it’s flown Away, away, you’re gone Before you leave [Chorus] Was there something I could’ve said To make your days feel brighter? Had I understood your storms, we might have held on tighter So, before you leave Is there a word to ease the pain? Before you leave
