I found one Looking for roses But the season is gone I see the eyes of a stranger I don't know you anymore I know my heart is in danger Lost in you ... just like before Searching for reasons ... one more time As we turn back the pages Who said love isn't blind? As I reached out for heaven You were all I could see As we try to hold on Forever ... just you and me It was the words that you said... That took you into my heart It was the tears that we shed... Forever - lost in the sea ... of my memories Whispered emotions, passions unbarred In the heat of the moment So many things that we said You found the end of my sadness You buried all of my pain Has love turned into madness Echoes are all that remain Chorus: It was the words that you said... That took you into my heart It was the tears that we shed...
