Sacrifice Our Love

We ran into each other like it was home
The most intense connection I have ever known

Although I feared it would surely be broken
Surrendered my heart and left my door wide open

Helpless and desperate I could do nothing but wait
For you to decide not to ignore fate

You steer toward the road of least resistance
Constantly fighting your desire's persistence

Your eyes beg me to release you for a normal life
Sacrifice our love, let you be a mother and wife

Now you have your family and your white picket fence
You conformed to the life that you think makes sense

I know you have realised that our love was not a sin
Doesn't matter now because you wake with him

You did not have the courage to love me back then
I let you go knowing I'd never truly love again.
