Swept Away

When all the words have been revealed

And no more secrets to conceal

Maybe I can love you again

When all regrets are set aside

And no more egos to collide

Maybe I can love you again

And when you say

That baby your ways have changed

With every break of day

I’ll be swept away

If I remember how we met

Between the drinks and cigarettes

Maybe I can love you again

The places we would spend our time

Between the sheets and bottled wine

Maybe I can love you again

All I have today can be gone again tomorrow

If only to exchange existing joy for sorrow

I closed myself off to the world

When your intentions were unfurled

But maybe I can love you again

The end has come and may return

Until then I may never learn

Just how to love you again
