To say it's love would be too simple, too obvious. It's more like a calling, a vocation, something I was put on this earth to do. Now I'm shooting with the stars and I'm flying with the angels, and my heartbeat is a symphony, the closer I get to you. I never saw you coming till you came, here you are. I never thought someone would ever dare to come this far. You're up for the resistance, and I'm stronger, my persistent, and have never known a remedy like us, If I could have you, If I could have you. I would be a river of dried up empty dust, I would be imprisoned forever, having loved you again, If you don't wanna be me. And I would be the same man you scraped off the ground, I'd have to go back being that broken soul you found. Those days are in the darkness, I buried them with hardness, and let the fear go steamin' down. Your life is like an anchor that puts me in my place, No, you won't let me sleep when I'm off losing my way, Thank God for your virtue and the wisdom in your eye, Cause somehow you get through on all the crazy in my mind, If I could have you, If I could have you. I would be a river of dried up empty dust, I would be imprisoned forever, having loved you again, If I could have you, If I could have you. Why did it take you so long to finally see, That we had a love that you don't find easily? You broke my heart and the price to pay for that, It's your life to live, the misery of losing what you have, If I could have you. If I could have you. My words have come too late, I've already turned that page, Don't you look at me that way, Cause you'll pull me back and that's the part I hate. I'll stay trapped inside my head, Where it's so hot and my walls melt, I can hear a promise in every lie you said you'd never tell, If I had only told the truth, Oh, I could never trust you too, You'll survive. No, I will not. If I could have you. If I could have you. Then I'm sorry for the things that cost you and me, And my punishment is more than any man can stand, I need you in my life. I can't let go. Why don't you stay with me tonight? I feel alone. Take me for the ride. Take me home. If I could have you. If I could have you. I know it'd be a river dried up into dust, I know it'd be a prison for ever having loved, If I could have you. I don't wanna be me. To say it's love would be too simple. *
