Can we begin again?

Can we begin again?
Tip the sands of time,
In the other direction,
Forget about the pain,
Erase the bitterness,
Let it all wash away in the rain,
Can we start when we were just friends?
Extinguish this flame,
That's burning in my chest,
Can we start again?
Forget that I feel,
Like a million birds are singing your name,
When you but walk past,
Ignore the way you call,
I wish I could forget it all,
Begin again as if I never knew you,
And that love was not where I had my fall.
