I don't know if you
will ever love me
as much as I love you.

I don't know if you
will ever love me
half as much as I love you.

I don't even know if you
will ever even love me at all.

Even so,
you started a fire inside of me,
that's burning brighter and brighter day by day.

Yet somehow,
instead of killing me,
the fire inside is making me feel
more alive, than I ever felt.
