Giving in to love
Friends tell me, being with you
will only lead to pain
so I tried to stay away
But how could I Ignore
the sound of my heart
calling your name?
How could I pretend not to see
the loving looks you give me
or the pain on your face
when I turned you away?
Love is too precious
to throw away like trash.
And my feelings are too strong
to just walk away from.
If I don't give in to this
thoughts of what might have been
will forever haunt me.
So tonight I come to you
and as I lie wrapped in your arms
life feels like a dream.
I know that you must leave me
and my heart will break.
But the memory of your kiss
will get me through
the long lonely days ahead.
