Well here's Not Strong Enough (Yea I know, real original title XD) I hope you enjoy!
Italy,
I don't know what to do anymore.
"I'm not strong enough to stay away"
I think I love you but…
"Can't run from you"
I don't know if you feel the same way.
"I'd just run back to you"
You are my friend,
"You say my name but it's not the same"
And when I'm with you,
"You look in my eyes"
I can't look away.
"I'm stripped of my pride"
Only you can do this to me.
"And my soul surrenders"
All I can do is hold you,
"And you bring my heart to its knees"
Like I never want to let you go.
"And it's killing me when you're away"
Now that this war is over, I miss you so much…
"And I wanna leave, and I wanna stay"
I want to see your beautiful face again,
"And I'm so confused"
But I don't know if you feel the same anymore…
"So hard to choose between the pleasure and the pain"
I want to protect you again,
"And I know it's wrong, and I know it's right"
To hold you in my arms again,
"And even if I tried to win the fight"
To feel like I have a reason to live again…
"My heart would overrule my mind"
That's it, tonight I'm going to tell you,
"And I'm not strong enough to stay away"
That I love you, so much.
"I'm not strong enough to stay away"
I think about you all the time,
"What can I do"
I can't take it anymore,
"I would die without you"
I have to see your perfect face,
"In your presence my heart knows no shame"
To see you smile again,
"I'm not to blame"
To hear you laugh again,
"'Cause you bring my heart to its knees"
Because of me…
"And it's killing me when you're away"
After the war we went our separate ways,
"And I wanna leave, and I wanna stay"
I wanted to hear your voice,
"And I'm so confused"
I needed you to say my name,
"So hard to choose between the pleasure and the pain"
But I was scared it wouldn't be the same.
"And I know it's wrong, and I know it's right"
But now that I see you,
"And even if I tried to win the fight"
Now that I hear your voice,
"My heart would overrule my mind"
Now that I hear you speak my name,
"And I'm not strong enough to stay away"
I know that I can't leave anymore.
"There's nothing I can do"
I'm hanging on your every word,
"My heart is chained to you"
I want you to say that you love me,
"And I can't get free"
I need you to say that you love me,
"Look what this love has done to me"
I said it, now I'm holding my breath till you say it back.
"'Cause it's killing me when you're away"
I know you have to feel the same way,
"And I wanna leave, and I wanna stay"
Did I just imagine those feelings between us during the war?
"And I'm so confused"
Now I'm scared,
"So hard to choose between the pleasure and the pain"
Your amber eyes aren't on mine anymore,
"And I know it's wrong, and I know it's right"
My hands start to shake,
"And even if I tried to win the fight"
Suddenly you look back at me,
"My heart would overrule my mind"
And your beautiful smile returns,
"And I'm not strong enough to stay away"
You move forward and grab me, bringing me into a tight hug. I feel warm drops on my shoulder and I hear you whisper:
Yes. Yes Germany, I've waited so long for you to say those words to me. I love you too, so much… Please stay and don't ever leave me again.
