Unrequited Love

My love, you know not what is good for you,

You know not what is right,

I know what is good, and I know what is right,

And so please stay with me tonight.


Darling, promise me this isn't just for now,

Promise me this isn't just for a day,

Consider it for much longer,

Tell me that you will stay.


You are caught in emotions of the past,

I promise you we can get through it if only you trust,

Help me to help you to get over your love for her, I promise my love will last,

Promise it too, you must.



Tell me my love, that we are something more,

Tell me that we are something you can always return to,

Tell me that my words hit you right to the core,

That I'm the only who you can depend on and who can see you through.



My love you are so tragic, but still the one I adore,

The only I always turn to despite the heart sore,

My love, give me the reassurance that you feel it too,

Give me something for me to hold onto.


Friends, but with the caveat of something more,

Tell me now that you cannot deny?

For you are the one I shall always adore,

This is true, and I shall not pass it by.
