you were a stranger
i knew you not then
for me you were an incognito
and things i couldn't apprehend
you came to touch my soul
but i was afraid
i shrank back in horror
tried to move myself out of your way
extending out your friendly hand
your warm eyes bore into mine
like a flash of light it hit me
your silly crooked smile
i took your hand
no longer afraid
i let you touch my soul
a part of me then you became
the bond hard to divorce
and suddenly you vanished
like a spell gone wrong
i was left in the darkness
all on my own
i searched out for you
but you were already gone
you left me without a word
and reasons unknown
your voice echoed in my ears
asking me to smile
but how could i? when you took it all..
all my reasons to smile
