For a little while, I beheld
A piece of heaven in her hazel eyes
And when you're faced with love like that
It's just too beautiful to stand
But our time has been cut short
And we're buried under lies
And when we're overwhelmed with only half the truth
It's just too ironic to stand
Take my hand, my outstretched hand left empty
And all our plans halted by things beyond our control
Will we remain unbroken?
And I'm dying just to let go
Convince me I'll carry on when I'm alone
And when we're overtaken by a loss of hope
The love we may still share is just beyond our reach
Please understand I cannot live a lie
My conscience is the only one happy now
Though my sleep is far from peaceful
And all the love we shared
Was tainted long before we dared
To let our hearts run free
For a while, I beheld
A piece of heaven in her hazel eyes
And when you're faced with love like that
It's just too beautiful to stand, to stand
