Jars Of Clay - I Don't Want You to Forget lyrics

The touch of lips the close of eyes They matter more than you surmise I hide it all in secret boxes Until tomorrow when we first meet I watch you fade before my eyes I can't take it, but I won't look away Maybe the fires that feel so cold, They won't completely die away I don't want to, I don't want you I don't want you to forget I don't want to, I don't want you I don't want you to forget I may not let you see my pain I may not speak hard words in anger To you maybe it isn't really strange You being loved by a stranger I won't give you up just yet I will come calling at your door Ours is a home we can't get to anymore I don't want to, I don't want you I don't want you to forget I don't want to, I don't want you I don't want you to forget Behind your eyes there is a distance I ask you if you'd like to dance You mistake me for a healer I'm just a desperate man stealing one last chance
