For your Love

by lyle fortin   Jun 15, 2004


I do everything I can to change your mind
Why to no avail, when you were so kind
You stab, you twist, try to kill me
Why now when you used to thrill me
You've torn me apart limb from limb
But this isn't how it's always been
You told me everything good, I was
But now I'm not and don't know the cause
If we're not meant for each other
And each of us meant for another
Then why does my heart yearn
And why would it burn
With each thought of you
Now what am I supposed to do
When for you I'd walk to the ends of Earth
Like I was put here to wait for your birth
How long will it take
Until you see your mistake
Do I need to be gone for you to know
That for you there's nowhere I wouldn't go?
Do I need to be six feet under
For you to realize our asinine plunder?
Will it be at my funeral until you've finally cried
"It was for my love that he died."
