I Chose To Stay

I could run around in circles
to make you want me
but no amount of miracles
would make you love me
I've done all that i can
to make you see
that you are the man
man for me

From the start I danced in your eyes
you won my heart we shared our lives
with a hand so cold in the deepest way
you touched my soul
and I chose to stay, I chose to stay, I chose to stay

You said in time will tell
so i let you be
but every day was hell
and you could not see

From the start I danced in your eyes
you won my heart we shared our lives
with a hand so cold in the deepest way
you touched my soul
and I chose to stay, I chose to stay, I chose to stay

no more whispering I want you, no more baby i need you, no more I cant live without you
by my side
no more whispering I love you, no more baby I need you, no more I cant live without you
by my side

From the start I danced in your eyes
you won my heart we shared our lives
with a hand so cold in the deepest way
you touched my soul
and I chose to stay, I chose to stay, I chose to stay

i fell in love with april. and lost her just a few month ago. so far this what you have posted seem to be the sweetest message from her or from God. if you look at the way your poems and my comments are lined up you will know that a miricle has occured. as you were posting and i commenting the words just seemed to flow. don't over look this as a coincidence it may give you faith in God. Just look at what happened with in the last 30 minuts. John Henry Loving III
