Reason and Emotion

Plain and simple, about wanting someone you can't have.

And all this time I thought I loved you
All this time I cared about you
I felt it was wrong, I was wrong

And when I look at you
My heart melts and withers away
I can't help but fall for those pretty lovely eyes
Sugary sweet smile and long flowing hair
It's so taunting, it's desire, but I know it's wrong

And I tell myself to hide my thoughts
But I know this is wrong
I tell myself to focus on something else, I was wrong
These things inside my head, these thoughts of love
They haunt me, they taunt me, tease me
It feels so right, it can't be, so it must be wrong

And why, I wonder
What is this pull, this affection for you
The way you move, your style, a warm and kind heart
But it is with another, another lucky soul

Reason says I should give up and give in
But my heart runs on passion and emotion
And hope always brings them around
So even though I know we can't be, I can dream
And I'll pray that I won't wake from such a wonderous though
But I know I shall wake to another day, another thought of you
I shall pray reason can send hope away, though I know it's wrong

I can feel your painful longing and the endless question and the desire to lose all control. The sweet sorrow of something forbidden.
