Even if it's not me.

I have one heart, and it's already sold.
to all others, the gap grows cold.
She says to look and find that love.
The kind of thing worth speaking of.
Yet I want for none and hope for all.
I'm not ready to take that fall.
I gave my love long ago.
Those feelings will always grow.
I'm just not ready to look somewhere else.
When what I want wants something else.
I move forward from day to day.
I wish that it could be that way.
The circle grows on every page.
My story longer every day.
If I could have but just one wish.
I would only ask for this.
That she holds my heart near.
To protect her from her fears.
Even if I end up alone.
I'll be fine because I know.
I know she loves me together or not.
I know when she moves on she's be lost.
Lost to me, but not my heart.
I have loved her from the start.
if in the end I'm not her choice.
Then I will hold no remorse.
I'll stay by her side still past then.
Even if it's just a friend.
I love her now, and I loved her then.
I will not let this be the end.
I would sacrifice for her happiness.
So I wait in such suspense.
With my heart she wont take to chance.
in case I'm not her choice at last.
I don't care, not this time.
I would love to make her mine.
She wont be with anyone.
Her heart will heal but over time.
Even though she walks alone.
She will always have me to hold.
