To Stay Strong

Is it possible for a lover to stay strong,
and finish writing the lyrics of a song
without shedding or hiding a tear...
how can one forget someone very dear?

Can words cut deeper than a sharp sword,
ask nobody for help but the Lord?
You have built that wall to get even...
to punish me and remain unseen!
Can you touch this shivering hand:
be loved, not despised and damned!

Is it possible for us to stay strong,
avoid envious stares from shameless peers;
who say words that echo in our ears...
we're glad to be here where we belong!

Oh, the more I missed your touch, 
the further seemed the distance;
we agree and wait, we will give doubt a chance,
oh, too real and undeniable is our crush!
