I'll love you forever
I'll wait for you always
As long as I'm living
In my heart you can be
But I'll never get over
The feeling that arose
In my heart when you said
You're not in love with me
You're always batting lashes
But these eyes, they suffer from a case
Of chronic misreception
I'm always hoping the light
Might find the time to drape itself on me
In a more revealing fashion
What's it take
When will you love me?
What's there left to do?
I'll love you forever
I'll wait for you always
As long as I'm living
In my heart you can be
But I'll never get over
The feeling that arose
In my heart when you said
You're not in love with me
I thought I saw you laughing
But I was wrong my ears play tricks on me
Then laugh at what they've done
I swore I felt you near me
But when I looked you'd vanished perfectly
And just like that you'd gone
What's it take
When will you love me?
What's there left to do?
I tried to blow you out
You flickered and you waved
But still your flaming heart
Burned for someone else
Discouraged and dismayed
I'll forever wait
But time may never tell
I'll love you forever
Ill wait for you always
As long as I'm living
In my heart you can be
But I'll never get over
The feeling that arose
In my heart when you said
You're not in love with me
Your heart never spoke to your head the way
That mine insists to from day to day
It kills to know what you wanna say
"Boy what you're looking for you'll never get
My heart's not yours to protect
I'm sorry
I'm sorry"
