The Heart Craves (What It Can’t Forget)
Words/Music: Richard Pirone & Robert Kvinnesland
(c)2003 Kvinnesongs (BMI)
(verse 1)
Maybe I’m guilty of all the things
You couldn’t find in your heart to forgive...
You said your love was just dying slow,
And that’s not how we're meant to live...
(climb 1)
I pretend that I don’t miss
Getting lost in your touch and your tenderness...
But the lies betray me with all those mem’ries
That haunt me ‘til I confess...
(chorus)
The heart craves what it can’t forget,
I never knew lonely ‘til the day you left...
Time might heal this hurt, and yet,
The heart craves what it can’t forget.
(verse 2)
I know it’s over, you’re gone to stay,
Still I think how it might have been...
This empty house gets so quiet and gray,
It’s hard to breathe when the night closes in...
(climb 2)
So I walk these streets and I drift
Through a night as black as the night can get...
In the cold moonlight, I see you there,
In every shadow and silhouette...
(chorus)
(bridge)
I stop at an old shop
That we passed by everyday...
I write your name in the window’s frost,
And as the sun comes up,
I watch it fade away...
(optional interlude)
(chorus - optional modulation)
