If I keep waiting for you

Will it kill me?

If I keep saying I love you

Will you see me?

Cause standing here holding my breath

My body can no longer move

For too long I've been frozen

It's too hard to let go of you

Not matter where I look

It's only you I see

Even when I close my eyes

You're there in my dreams

Are you here to haunt me?

Keeping me at a distance?

Or are you here for something else?

Taunting me with your presence?

Without you beside me

My eyes are so jaded

The world has no colour

Things are dull and faded

The hope of being with you

Has left me long ago

Because I know what we have

Can be nothing more

Thinking about this

Brings tears to my eyes

But you'll never see them

Cause you'll never be mine

If it hurts that I love you

I'm so sorry

I can't stop these feelings

Please forgive me

The last thing I want

Is to put you through pain

I'd rather take it for you

Put me in your place

For you I'd do anything

There's no limit

I'd even give you my life

If you asked for it

If you ever feel alone

I'll always be there

There to protect you

There to take care

If I had it my way

I would stop what I feel

Cause I know that's what you want

And I know what can't be real

No matter how much I want you

Want you all to myself

I know it's not possible

You'll always belong to someone else

I know I'm being selfish

With this love I have for you

But how can I let go of someone

With a heart so beautiful

I'm sorry if you feel guilty

I don't want to hurt you

I'm sorry for being a bother

For wanting to be with you

If it'll make you feel better

For me to leave your side

I would go in a second

Keeping this pain I hide

I don't wish to bring you trouble

I just want to give you my heart

With all its broken pieces

And all its missing parts

Do what you want with it

Do as you may

Cause no matter what

Only with you it'll stay

I don't know how much longer

I can stay alive

My heart is so weak

From keeping all this hurt inside

But I know if you love someone

you have to let them go

Keep this emptiness with me

Stay hidden in the shadows

There's only one thing

I ask you to do

Please forgive me

For loving you
