There's a halo surrounding you
The scent of love where you breathe
The path you walk flowers bloom
What is happening to me?

I hate myself 'cause I'm like that
the way I act when you're in the room
To be in love feels so bad
I hate that I love you

Oh heavens why did you send me this angel
To come and hurt me 'cause he'll never be mine
Oh hell, my heart is burning in your fire
When the pools of honey drown my eyes

Poem after poem I write in my heart
Night after night your soul visits me
Love song after love song start
To play every time you speak

It hurts a heart to keep on screaming to a heart that is deaf
Hurts a soul to glow for a blind
It hurts to try to bring back life to someone who's dead
Hurts to always have you on my mind

Your voice is my heartbeat
Your heart beats my life
Your laugh is a healing
to my burning eyes
with tears...
I'm sorry this is me...


Everywhere that you go this halo keeps on following you
And I will never know how to handle my heart
It hurts, oh It hurts and no words can express
It hurts, It burns a heart to love like that
