You put a rose in my hand    Put a dollar in my pocket    But you don’t understand    How the days grow longer, the sky is black as night    I see the morning but you won’t see the light       I thought about you for a long, long time    I wrote about you but my words don’t seem to rhyme    And now you’re lying here    But my heart still beats for you       Had a dream about you    You sat right down beside me    And you told me we were through    It was all so real and you told me reasons why    You brought me to the window    And you taught me how to fly       I thought about you for a long, long time    I said I love you but we just don’t have the time    And now you’re lying here    But my heart still beats for you       I thought to hold you for a long, long time    You said I love you but my heart won’t seem to chime in    And now you’re lying here    And my heart still beats for you...I’m trying, and my heart still beats for you
