Sweet

On broken stairs i watch the lovers meet
Beyond feeble hopes I have nothing to compare
To be held a moment in either one's stare
Would I find what I'm hiding from?

How sweet to be loved so deep
Wanting just a piece to keep
A feeling pure and divine
If only it were mine

Throwing away the remote in fear of my enemy
Exploiting my weakness and infirmity
Stepping into the rain to hide the tears
I can see them still, breathing as one

How sweet to be loved so deep
Wanting just a piece to keep
A feeling pure and divine
If only it were mine

Falling to my knees as they crumbled to dust
I pray this longing heart be driven from me
A precious gift gone to waste
My lonely thoughts too much to take

How sweet to be loved so deep
Wanting just a piece to keep
A feeling pure and divine
If only it were mine

i read this before but wasn't able to logon. This is even better on the second and third read, and the chorus is just superb in context, as well as how it breaks down to the fewest words with the most powerful meaning. Really great, thanks so much for sharing this one.

I. Love. This.

Ooh, it really drew me in, I love the line "Would I find what I'm hiding from?", very effective
