Can I…?
Should I…?
Do I…?
Why love him?
Is it a sin to try it again?
If he understands,
Should I stretch out my hand?
Ah, it’s so different from before
There’s no surprise nor excitement
All I feel is a veil of dread over a cloak of fear
I’ve been trying not to let him know
I wanted nothing more than to let it go
But the thoughts keep coming back
Breathing life into the memories I don’t lack
Ah, somehow I know it’s true
The painful truth is reflected in all I do
This simple fact is all that remains
Yes, yes, I really do
I can’t help but love you
Can I…?
Should I…?
Do I…?
Why love him?
