Free time - Free love


Would you still love me if I pushed you away

Because it's not what I want when I say what I say.

I want you to stay and I want you to be where I lay.

 

When I get mad it's only fear.

The devil's talk is all that I hear,

He hides my truth and my tears.

It's only God that I truly want to endear.

And I just want to love you.

 

It's only my silly thouhgts that run through my head.

They turn into words I wish I never said.

I was wrong, unjust, and misled.

I want to hold you till we both are dead,

because I very much love you.

 

I do not want any other man

To kiss my lips and hold my hand.

I just want you to understand

That our love is stronger than the promise land;

That your name is my own spiritual brand;

And right next to your heart is where I stand.

Forever.

 

So hear me out when I say 

The hatred words are fear I embrace

Of you leaving me over an honest mistake

That I wish I never said or ever made.

I just want you to know I will always love you.

 

I hope I made it clear to you

The things I would actually never do

Because I honestly don't know what I would do

If I lost you.

 

You are my world, my life, my lover, my best friend

And I will always be there for you until the very end.

I'm sorry for the person I pretend;

My love for you should never bend;

The hate I feel should never tend.

I am wrong and you are right

Please forgive me and love me for life

Because I will love you every day and every night.
