Can I Keep You?

I see you
hiding from the world
you carry a heavy heart
letting no one in

smile that wonderful smile
are those tears in your eyes?
As I raise my hand to wipe them
I realize they're frozen

why can't you lean on me?
telling me all your secrets
you say it's pointless
nothing helps

shroud yourself in shadows
angry lyrics fill your heart
broken.. yes you are
I just want to fix you

see you smile jokingly
can't we go back to yesterday?
nothing's the same
I fear you'll never return to where we used to be

Leave it all behind
why must the lost
search for what isn't there?
come back to me

I love you so
you carried me when I was weak
stumbling, tripping, you caught me
lifted me to live again

I just want to save you
lift you from the ashes
restore your loving soul
help you want to live again

Can't I be your angel
like you were mine..?
