Lyrics The Strive - Sleepless In Seattle

Once upon a time there was
a boy who loved a girl.
She was absolutely perfect
In an imperfect world.
Forever saw promise
It's more than just a word.
And they meant it to each other
Of that they were sure.
He came home to her crying
At the top of the stairs
He asked,'Baby,what's the matter?'
As he pushed back her hair.
She said,'Honey,i'm sick,what the hell did i do?'
And with pain in his heart
He screamed at the moon:

Chronus:
Please,don't
Take her away from me,
She
Truly is everything
That i have left
As selfish
As it may seem
I need you
Here with me

Day after day
He stood by her side
While
Sleepless in Seattle
Played through his mind
Forever seems longer
When you got your whole life
But forever is forgotten
When the end drawns the line
She said,'Honey,just listen,
Listen to me.
We should be together
In a boat on the sea''
He held back his tears
And spoke quietly
''When i picture forever
It's you here with me''

Chronus:
Please,dont
Take her away from me
She
Truly is everything
That i have left
As selfish
As it may seem
I need you
Here with me

And please,just
Let her go painlessly
Let her drift off
In her dreams
Just don't make
Her feel a thing
Just try
And get some sleep
This Angel deserves
Her wings
As leaves fall from
The trees
She became a memory
To a man
Who lost everything
Forever doesn't mean anything
Just a promise
That we came
That there's hope
For you and me
She looked to the sky
And with a one final breath
She said,''Take this heart,
From out of my chest
Carry it far
With the love you possess
I'm sorry,my boy
But i tried...
My best..''
