For Good This Time
Every time I see you
It sets off a old spark in my body
A spark that I though had died
Or one I thought left when you did
It eats away at my insides
Causes me to remember everything
In an abrupt flashback
That my mind tries to reject
It's a mixture of pain
And pleasure
Pain because I know
You never have
And never will
Feel the same as I do
And it effortlessly tears apart the barriers I've made
To protect myself from my aching and battered heart
Pleasure because it reminds me that
At one point in my life
I was loved and in love

That constant reminder gives me hope
That maybe another shall come along
But this time
For good [/font]
