Why can’t I turn and walk away,

I know you don’t really want me to stay.

This isn’t real love that I’ve found,

Why can’t I break these bonds, from which I’m bound?

 

You don’t love me for who I am,

You love me for what you receive from my hand.

If you hadn’t been in such a fix,

Would you have come to me like this?

 

Or would we still be apart,

With me missing you in my heart.

Will you ever truly love me,

Or is using me all this will ever be?

 

I know why I can’t walk away,

I know why I stay.

I love you, now and forever,

The bonds I have, I cannot sever.

 

I love you…..
