I won't cry myself to sleep.
I'll persist in my resistance,
Though this love for you is deep.

Objectionable Love
Let me love you from a distance -
I won't cry myself to sleep.
I'll persist in my resistance,
Though this love for you is deep.
Every glance I steal I'll cherish;
Every touch I get I'll keep.
In my sadness I won't perish,
Though the road I'm on seems steep.
Every thought I will surrender,
When all I think about is you.
And, like a beast so rough and tender,
I'll let it roam so free and true.
