For You I Sing (Light Up Ahead)

You've made tonight unbearable. That's what you always do.
You look out the window but its not the moon you're looking for.
If you were at the very end of the street
I'd probably say: light up ahead...
Ahead of this long two year old road.
And if it's not me you choose...I wont be upset, cause it's just a bet I've lost.
Yeah, I'm stubborn and weird, but isn't that what you loved me for?

Time isn't such a big problem when its distance we're discussing.
We all long to be loved by who we love and this may not be the case.
We change, we're strange
But in the end it's selfishness or selflessness that will win this game we're playing
I don't know if I should curse or explain how you've turned out to be one yourself
Yes, love is indeed a mistake...but we humans make them everyday

"You're air and I'm eager to stop breathing"
We both know that is a lie
I feel that weak heart of mine beat and burst
You said "forget I was ever here"
You would never understand how vital it is for me to keep hearing that voice

I may sound foolish, I may sound insane...but I'm the fool that loves you and always will
For you I sing
