This love is real, I know

I promise you it is not for show

I just need you to guide me

I need to be aware of my wrongdoings

So that I don't hurt you

With what I say or what I do

When it comes to our love, you are in control of me

I hope that eventually you will see...


Come on love, take my hand

All I want is for you to understand

You mean everything to me

I hope I will never have reason to leave


I can't spend every second in worry

About all of the possibilities

If I step here, will I somehow wrong her?

If tell her of my pain, will it hurt her?

I'm trying to be ever so careful

But it is hard being so fearful

Anxiety at every turn

This worry is starting to hurt...


Come on love, take my hand

All I want is for you to understand

You mean everything to me

I hope I will never have reason to leave


It seems that everything reminds me of you

Even long before now, this was true

When we were so far apart

You still found your way into my heart

Sleepless nights spent on the thoughts of regret

Hoping and praying that you were not as upset

As I was about having fought with you

Regretting every evil word I said to you


Come on love, take my hand

All I want is for you to understand

You mean everything to me

I hope I will never have reason to leave


I'm sure you know how long I have felt this way

The thought of hurting you still haunts me today

"Never again" I repeat in my mind

But even now I still find

It is hard to save you from this secondhand pain

From my negative thoughts taking form in crimson rain

Though logic says to just keep it secret

My heart screams, "Be faithful, don't keep it!"


Come on love, take my hand

All I want is for you to understand

You mean everything to me

I hope I will never have reason to leave


I will never try to hurt you in any way

Like before, with the evil words I would say

Even if you hurt me with corrupt intention

There will never, ever be reason

To push you away or try to ignore

To cause you pain like I did before...

I love you too much to want to cause you hurt

Because the thought of your pain hurts the worst.


Love, I am doing the best I can...

All I want is for you to understand.
