Lyrics (C)1997 Paul Malyschko

I saw the sadness in your eyes
As you whispered your last goodbye
But in my madness, I'd had enough
Of what some people like to call love.

As I embraced cruel loneliness
I knew you would never confess
To the crimes against the heart you'd done
You were a murderer on the run.

You found me; you held me; you loved me; you killed me
You plunged your knife of hate into my soul
With a dead heart, what can I live for?
With a dead heart, I'll love you no more.

When I first found you, you blew my mind
I knew you were a once in a lifetime find
You were a diamond among the stones
So divine, and yet so alone.

Love come so easily, and so easily departed
Your leaving left me broken-hearted
Why is it that you don't understand
You've got my loveblood on your hands?

You found me; you held me; you loved me; you killed me
You plunged your knife of hate into my soul
With a dead heart, what can I live for?
With a dead heart, I'll love you no more.

Why, o why, did you take my soul?
With a dead heart, I'm no longer whole
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
You must give me back my heart, you must.

You found me; you held me; you loved me; you killed me
You plunged your knife of hate into my soul
With a dead heart, what can I live for?
With a dead heart, I'll love you no more.

Find me; hold me; love me; resurrect me
Kiss the life back into my soul
With a heart, it's you I'll live for
With a heart, I'll love you forever more.
