What I Want

I want to touch you 
but I just cannot let you go 
I want to hold you 
but it is just to much to show

I want to kiss you
but I just cannot do
I want to love you
but my love for him grew 

What I got is his love
All the things I want but he is above
I know that I cannot cheat
In the front is where he does meet

I got the love that I need
In the fire I feed
I know that I got to let you go
Many things I want but I can no longer show.
