TO HAVE AND TO LOSE

by ALLEN CEM   Apr 10, 2007


TO HAVE AND TO HOLD FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE

IS WHAT I PROMISED TO DO BEFORE I FELL UPON

THIS CURSE

I DO NOT KNOW WHICH IS BETTER TO HAVE LOVED

AND LOST OR NOT HAVE LOVED AT ALL

WITH ONE I AM A PRISONER WITH A CELL MATE

STILL ALONE

WITH THE OTHER I HAVE NO EMOTIONS COLD LIKE A

STONE

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD FOR RICH OR FOR POOR IS

WHAT I PROMISED TO DO BEFORE I WALKED OUT THAT DOOR

I HAD NO INTENTIONS FOR THIS

TO TURN OUT IN SUCH A NEGATIVE WAY

BUT EVEN WITH RICH THE FEELING WAS POOR

WHICH IS WHY IT LED TO ME TO WALK OUT THAT

DOOR

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH

I COULD HAVE GAVE YOU THE WORLD WHICH WOULD

MEAN NOTHING FOR WELL BEING IS ALL THE WEALTH

THERE WAS NO DISEASE BUT ONLY A SICK FEELING

INSIDE, ONE SO POWERFUL I COULD NOT HIDE

THERE WAS NOTHING I CAN DO NOT A SINGLE CURE

THE ONLY THING I NEEDED WAS FOR OUR LOVE TO BE

PURE

TO LOVE, HONOR AND CHERISH - TILL DEATH DO US

PART

IS WHAT I PROMISED TO DO FROM THE START

TO LOVE, I DID I GAVE IT MY ALL

I DID THINGS I NEVER WOULD JUST NOT TO CRAWL

BUT THERE WAS SOMETHING SOMEWHERE THAT

KILLED LOVE BEFORE DEATH CAN TAKE US AWAY

I DID EVERYTHING IN MY POWER FOR IT TO STAY

HONOR, WITHOUT A DOUBT YOU WERE THE ONLY ONE

AT NIGHT YOU WERE MY MOON IN MORNING MY SUN

CHERISH, THERE WAS NOTHING MORE I CAN DO TO

SHOW YOU HOW I FELT ONLY THE THOUGHT OF YOU

MADE ME MELT

I APOLOGIZE FOR WHAT HAS HAPPENED FOR I CAN

NOT TELL YOU WHY

NOT A SINGLE ANSWER TO WHAT IT IS THAT MAKES

ME CRY

I KNOW NOTHING WHEN I WAS CONVINCED I HAD

NOTHING LEFT TO LEARN

BUT NO ONE KNOWS ALL SO LIKE A FLAME

IMMATURE I BURN

READ WHAT I WRITE CAREFULLY STUDY EACH LINE

DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO BE HAPPY

BECAUSE YOUR ONLY FIGHT IS TIME
