My Diary Of Lyrics (Lyrics & Poems Written by me)

When Love Meant Loving You

Memories of us is like the ringing in my ears.

The noise disappears and all is quiet,

And I can't hear.

Pictures of us is like the smoke of a blown-out flame.

A whisper of the past that went as quickly as it came.

Remembering all of that,

It faded away...

Faded to grey.

Now looking back,

I don't know what to say.

It seems like just yesterday...

***

Well, I don't want to love if love means I can't be with you.

I don't want to touch if that means this love ain't true.

I don't want to kiss you,

If that's gonna make me miss you.

I went through that bliss with you...

I'm making it through this, too...

Baby, it's true...

That I don't want to love,

If I can't love you.

***

The thought of your name causes me nothing but pain.

The roses you gave me lay dying on the table,

Cause the love that we shared was wild and unstable.

And the letter you sent,

Is crinkled and bent,

And stained with tears.

Cause we couldn't face our fears.

***

Well, I don't want to love if love means I can't be with you.

I don't want to touch if that means this love ain't true.

I don't want to kiss you,

If that's gonna make me miss you.

I went through that bliss with you...

I'm making it through this, too...

Baby, it's true...

That I don't want to love,

If I can't love you.

***

And worst of all, I can still recall the time,

When you held me close...

And I called you mine.

This hurt is starting to set in.

But I don't wanna give in...

***

I don't want to love if love means I can't be with you.

I don't want to touch if that means this love ain't true.

I don't want to kiss you,

If that's gonna make me miss you.

I went through that bliss with you...

I'm making it through this, too...

Baby, it's true...

That I don't want to love...

If I can't love you.

***

You're still there in the back of my mind,

Now that this is done and through.

But I won't forget- and won't regret- the time,

When I loved you...

Cause love was at it's best when love...

Meant loving you.

***
