Analysis of Take Your Pain Away



would take your pain away,
If it took my breath from me.
There is nothing I wouldn't do,
If I could only set you free.

When I look into your eyes,
I see sadness deeply hidden.
Fear, desire, and passions,
The things this life has forbidden.

I want to fill your heart with peace,
And see the joy in your face.
Through the sorrows and the pain,
I would gladly take your place.

I'd wipe the tears from your eyes,
Before they ever start.
I'd sooth your weary mind,
And heal your broken heart.

All the troubles that you've seen,
Would be forgotten with the past.
Your future would be bright,
And your life would be a blast.

I have this master plan,
That will take your pain away.
It really isn't difficult,
I'll just love you every day.
