How do you hold back a tear
Whenever a thought of her appears?
How do you erase that thought
When your heart tells you naught?

How do you hold back a tear
Whenever you wish she was near?
How do you remove that wish
When your heart tells you of its bliss?

How do you hold back a tear
When a dream of her reappears?
How do you vanquish a dream
When your heart tells you it’s not what it seems?

How do you hold back a tear
Whenever you sigh a why?
How do you wipe away a sigh
When your heart tells you not to try?

How do you hold back a tear?
It’s impossible to try
Memories never fade I fear
So it’s okay to breakdown and cry
