THERE'S ALWAYS HOPE... (I HOPE...)

if I love you
have I lost my mind
if I believe
love does not end

if I love you
when I'm left behind
will you believe
I am your friend

or does it become obsession
do these words amount to stalking
are my feelings some threat to you
just because we're not talking

I don't see you as a possession
I just wish you'd understand
I believe in love endless and true
so I keep an open hand
still reaching out to you
with an open hand


so I love you
have I lost my mind
because I believe
love does not end

I still love you
though you left me behind
and I believe
I am your friend

for I want you to be happy
I didn't run away from my heart
and time does not change the truth
you were the one from the start

maybe time has given you
a way to rationalize
running away from your heart

you couldn't look me in the eyes
and tell me you didn't love me
but you listened to others
who said we should be apart


and so I love you
and you can ignore my words
but somewhere deep inside you
your heart must be heard

I still love you
love can't be left behind
and you know that isn't not
all in my mind
in your heart you know it's not
all in my mind



I Still Love You
(All In My Mind)
