9 lives

9 lives is the most you can live, 1 heart is the most you can give, 

9 lives, 1 love, and to me, you are more then enough, 

I’d choose you a million times over, but I could only choose you 9, I have nine lives to tell you when it’s right, 

I’m sure one minute out of nine could be the right time, 

at least that is what I think, but it only takes 1 second to blink, 

1 second and the person I love most faded away, until my next life sees the light of day, 

at-least I see it that way, 

I hope you do too, but my nine lives don’t matter to you, 

9 lives to live, but only 1 so true, in every moment out of 9, it’s always been you,
