Don't fall in love you would always say
But I still can't see a better way
For the little things you did for me
They made my heart and soul feel free
But still you would say in no uncertain way
That if I fall in love I would live to pay
A price that would leave me raw and torn
Because of a misery of which so many mourn
What I didn't understand that fateful day
Was that it wasn't for me that I should dismay
Nor for my life that love would take
But still a loss that would leave me broken in its wake
But still I found love on a rainy day in May
A love with which fate would later play
Her eyes would shine with hope and pain
And she would hold me close, begging to remain sane
Still you say from the sterile bed in which you lay
I shouldn't have fell in love with you that day
For now I am to be left alone once you pass
Because of this illness no-one could surpass
But now I tell you to rest because it's okay
For loving you I would gladly pay
A price of pain and loneliness when you leave
Because you were the only one in which I ever believed
