What a strange thing love is.
How it can hit you when you least expect,
You can wait for the right time,
But time is something it doesn't respect.
What a confusion love is.
How can I explain how I love you?
How can I explain why I do?
What is it that caused this struggle?
What a tragic story love is.
When you don't feel the way I do
And the happy ending I dreamt of
Is replaced by the way I love you.
What a madness love is.
Who can understand its ways?
That no formula, equation
Or any logic can explain.
What a beautiful thing love is.
How just a smile can make my day,
A thousand years of happiness
No matter what tomorrow brings my way.
What a painful thing love is.
That's why they say love is pain,
I become addicted to the pain
And the happiness all the same.
What a strong feeling love is.
How suddenly nothing else matters,
How the heart can be ripped to shreds
And your whole being torn to tatters.
What an infinite black hole love is.
A labyrinth with no way out,
No matter how much you try escape
The feelings are beyond count.
What a trial such a love is.
For I have to be patient for your sake,
I have to pretend you haven't hurt me
And smile whilst my heart does break.
What a love my love is.
Stronger than a diamond in the rough,
For even if I don't have you,
Then just making you happy is enough.
What a queen my love is.
More beautiful than a blood red rose,
Sweeter than a grain of sugar,
More kind than anyone I know.
What an amazing feeling love is.
That despite all the pain and hurting,
That is caused by its fire
I'd still do anything to keep it burning.
