A Love That Cannot Be Like This
You haunt me like a dream at night.
Ready to tempt, ready to deny.
I don't dare to call this love
Because you already love some body else.
Tonight the moon is bright and solitary
There's not a single star in sight.
I imagine that I'm in the car
With you driving me home.
The image of your face taunts my soul
Tempting me to be with you
Pushing me to call it 'love'
When your love is with somebody else.
Many times the thought of eternity
Comes into my mind that we
Will always forever will be
Waiting to love each other eternally.
But I doubt this because your love
Is not mine to keep like this.
I am merely a friend to you
And you are something more to me.
I tell myself time and time again
Every time I start to think of you
"My love, like this, is not for me to give.
Nor yours to give to me, like this."
