I wish I could forget you
Erase you from my mind
But ever since I met you
I find
I cannot leave the thought of you behind
That doesn't mean I love you
I wish that I could love you
I know that I've upset you
I know I've been unkind
I wanted you to vanish from sight
But now I see you in a different light
And though I cannot love you
I wish that I could love you
For now I'm feeling love
Like none I've ever known
A love as pure as breath
As permanent as death
Implacable as stone
A love that like a knife
Has cut into a life
I wanted left alone
A love I may regret
But one I can't forget
I don't know how I let you
So far inside my mind
But there you are and there you will stay
How could I ever wish you away?
I see now I was blind
And should you die tomorrow
Another thing I see
Your love will live in me
Loving you
Is not a choice
It's who I am
Loving you
Is not a choice
And not much reason
To rejoice
But it gives me purpose
Gives me voice
To say to the world
This is why I live
You are why I live
Loving you
Is why I do
The things I do
Loving you
Is not in my
Control
But loving you
I have a goal
For what's left of my life
I will live
And I will die
For you
This is why I live
You are why I live
Loving you
Is why I do
The things I do
Loving you
Is not in my
Control
But loving you
I have a goal
For what's left of my life
I will live
And I will die
For you
