How can I love?

How can a heart love so much
It feels like bursting?
How can a smile stretch so far
It feels like cracking?

How can I love you this much
Even though I know so little?
Why do I want to give you the world
Even though my world has been taken?

Why do I reach out for you
Every time my life falls apart?
Why does my heart skip a beat
Every time I hear your name?

How can I feel so close to you
When you are so far away?
How can I feel so safe with you
When I know I could lose it all?

Could this be love,
This feeling I have for you?
It could be love,
This sensation I have with you
