Earthquakes

You know this isn't right, 
it's not the way we should be,
I know you'll never want this, 
because you choose to see her in me.

I no longer deny the fact of that being true,
wish you could no longer deny the fact that 
I'm so in love with you.

I can't change this, 
though I know you wish I could,
but say even I could, 
You know I never would.

Slowly but surely, the truth I am beginning to see,
the paths were set for you to choose from,
hopefully you want to walk them with me.

I want to be with you forever, so 
I'll do whatever it takes,
because when you make love to me,
it seems the whole earth quakes.
