Why do I Love
There are so many people on this planet I know
But only one is able to really hit home
There are so many people I can choose to love
But the one that I chose is all the way up
He lives on a mountain all mighty and fair
I am down here combing knots from my hair
It’s just so unfair how high up he lays
How low I feel basking in his rays
The sun is gone
As wrong as it is true
To love somebody
Who doesn’t love you
Why do I love somebody that high
Somebody who doesn’t come down from the sky
Somebody whose smile lights up your world
But only once in a while does it come through
I hate that I love him
I hate that I care
But there is something about him that I cannot bare
Maybe it’s the way he glides through the air
Why do you love him if he doesn’t love you
Maybe it’s because my love is true
Maybe loving somebody all comes from you
What you are going through is your own heart
Trying to decipher the wrong from the right
How far I will fall from such a height
Only determines how far I will climb
It will all be worth it in time
Loving him is like a boat to sea
One minute you’re floating, the next you’re free
I can’t help that I love him
I can’t help that I care
It all just isn’t fair
How can I love somebody who just doesn’t care
How can I love somebody who makes me stutter and blush
If he only sees me once in a rush
How can I love somebody with such a kind heart
Who confines himself to an unsteady rock
I hate that I love him
I hate that I care
I hate having him stuck in my head
Maybe it’s the way in the summer his hair turns a light red
Maybe it’s because he’s as tall as a tree
Or maybe it’s because I know he will never love me
He can never hurt me
But when he talks to her my heart falls to my feet
My heart takes on a mind of its own when you are around
It’s like i’m running homebound
I hate that she loves you
I hate that she cares
I hate that you talk to her day to day
Like she is the princess and I am the maid
Why do I love why do I care
It’s all so unclear
Why do I love
When he doesn’t love me
