You taught me to be strong.
You taught me when to fight and when to talk.
You taught me not to kill.
But how can I follow your teachings,
When you've gone away?

You taught me inner strength.
You taught me peace and faith.
You taught me to love.
But how can I follow your teachings,
When you've gone away?

Xena, how could you leave me?
I know I have more to learn.,
How can I live without you?

Gabrielle, how could you leave me?
I know I have more to learn.
How can I live without you?

My heart is empty without you.
I can't think.
I can't write.
All I can see,
Is how you were taken from me.

My heart is empty without you.
I can't fight.
I can't feel.
All I can see,
Is how you were taken from me.

I'm alone, so alone,
And I'm helpless, so helpless.
I don't know how to save you,,
And how can I bring you home?

I'm alone, so alone,
And I'm helpless, so helpless.
I don't know how to save you,
And how can I bring you home?

You're gone!
What can I do now?
Be a bard?
Lead the Amazons?
How can I, if you're not by my side?

You're gone!
What can I do now?
Be a hero?
Help the helpless?
How can I, if you're not by my side?

How can I live without you?
You're my older sister.
You took me under your wing,,
And helped me.
You showed me the world
And taught me about life.
I need you.

How can I live without you?
You're the sister I've always wanted.
You kept me good, you kept me sane,
And helped me find myself.
You showed me the beauty of life,
And taught me to enjoy it.
I need you.

I know there are two kinds of tears:
Tears for those that leave you;
And tears for those you never let go.
And you'll always be in my heart,
Because I know you walk with me.

I know that you can hear my thoughts
And know that I love you.
I know that we'll be together again,
And I know you'll always be in my heart,
Because I know you walk with me.

No!
I won't let you go!
I'll find a way to bring you back,
Bring you back to me.

Thank the Gods you're back!!

Now we will travel to new adventures,
Together.
You'll help me understand why people
Do what they do.
I'll keep this smile on my face,
Because I have you back!

Now we will fight against evil,
Together.
You'll help me control my anger,
My rage, my dark side.
I'll keep this smile on my face,
Because I have you back!

Xena,

Gabrielle,

Please don't leave me again,
Because we were meant to be together,
Forever.
