Array ( [sid] => 16770 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Can't be Taken Away [time] => 2003-04-30 12:35:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I've lived through
Five months of despair
You've lived too
Never needing to share

I hoped you would feel
Without me to explain
I needed compassion
To help with the pain

I'm afraid I expected
Too much from you
And too little from me
If I'd only knew

I used to watch
Two stars in the sky
And see a true love
With a sweet eye

Then I looked up
For hours and hours
I cried, I couldn't tell
The others from ours

I'd rather have love
Than hate as a memory
That's why I left
Our friendship dear Emily

Thirty days have gone
Since our contact ended
I've made that too
A milestone amended

You can still light
The fire in my heart
For now it's gone out
No flame, we're apart

But you won't return
That much I know
I hope you've learned
Have something to show

I can now live
To love another day
But that I have loved
Can't be taken away

Can't be Taken Away
