Tried

 I tried to stop the dreams 

to hold the memories back,

but there is no stopping love

to keep it from this heart of 

mine.

I can't control how others feel

and don't know what they think,

it might take two hearts to love

but all I know is what's in this 

heart of mine.

Can't see over the mountains

nor cross the rivers wide, 

unless you were here beside me

and we stopped the hands of time.

I tried to stop the dreams 

to hold the memories back,

but like the tears that had fallen

both the dreams and memories

could not be held back.
