Analysis of Can't leave without you
Trust me
It's not easy being a heart breaker to someone like you who stood by my side
The night is so long
Endless and I try to cover myself on the bed; yet still I am not warm because you are not beside me
I can't forget when we both fell asleep together in the moon light sometimes, I use to be thirsty, and you would scoop up your own tears and then throw them directly into my arteries to reduce the pain of my life that I had in my heart
Even now, when I am drinking red wine I cannot enjoy its taste because we used to drink it together until our faces reflected all the happiness we felt together‚ about then since I am by myself, and I don't feel the same because I have broken your innocent heart
It wasn't easy to walk alone on a rainy night
I kept seeing you on every street corner, or in traffic lights and suddenly I would stop walking, remembering our first dance when we danced for the first time under the clouds in windy, rainy weather
I don't understand how can I ignore the poems that you spent time writing about me; describing and showing your love to me so I could feel closer to you
I feel as if I was blind to leave all those words and lines on my back and forget them like a big tree with leaves, and that each leaf had a word written on it about your love for me; and since we are in spring, all those words have fallen off in different colors with no more meaning to me
