I still can see her standing there
And pausing at the door
That night she said goodbye
Because she had no room for more

She’d stood there in my tempest
Faced the fire inside of me
She placed her love upon my scars
To mend what shouldn’t be

Her heart had grown too heavy
With what can’t be understood
She bandaged up my wounds and did
Those things she knew she could

She left me standing there alone
Filled up with her depart
But she’d stayed long enough
To stop the bleeding in my heart
