Oh love how can I stay away
when you still come to my rescue
oh love how can I ignore you
when you pull me down from the edge
Oh love how can I deny you
when you hold me close in your mind
Oh love how can I forget you
when you always come my way
oh love how can we go on like this
missing heartbeats everyday
our souls wrapped up in dedication
and our vows tied tight pulled apart
forced by duty and held there by honor
covered in promises too young to ever
understand that we would thus regret forever,
and here I am saved by your arms again
and never allowed to stay.
