I held the book so tightly in my hands
I saw your picture, heard you call my name
There was something strange, I could not look away
I wanted to be there, I wanted to go
You gave me no warning, you gave no reason
But I was with you, right by your side
Just give me the strength and I can help you
They can try their hardest, they dont frighten me
Its written in the book
Its hotter than Ive known before
But I feel so cold and I dont know why
But if the fire within your heart can beat the storm
Then I really believe you could make it right
The time has come now, we must show our feelings
But Im looking right through you and your heart is empty
Whatever happened to you, its too late to change now
Theres nowhere you can run to, no place to hide
Ah, you let me down
...but wait a minute, I dont understand
Its getting stronger, so grab my hand
Dont wanna leave you, dont wanna go
But Im losing all control
Cant you see me, Im slipping away
I can only stay if youve the will to keep me here
Its written in the book
Oh, so many times since then Ive read those words
Just waiting to see you, can you see me?
