Love's Not Lost Like Lust

i'm crying softer then I did before
and it's barely been a few minutes ago
it's harder, it's harder their falling down 
now I'm falling deeply in love now
it's a dream to meet a girl like you
it's a shame I say I love you when you don't say too
i'm so excited to see you everyday
even if you don't feel the same way
you don't even mind me or care about me
but the way we talk, your smile, your laugh, are deeply so lovely
i can't help but stare into your brown eyes
you're so contagiously attractive but stiff like wood
if I could never love you, I couldn't
if I can move on, I know I wouldn't
this is what the american nightmare is like 
but for you, I'd fight all night
i know the difference between best and right
i'm right when I tell you my love I'm not at plight
the remnents left from what you showed me, stay with me
you're the shining star in my heart 
you complete my missing part
and for you I'd count the salt under the sea
i want all of you and I want you to be with me!
but...
i know we're far away from together
and I know you'll never want me, never
i know we can never have a "forever"
you can forget me, but I'll be there for you whenever...
