I'd Still Choose You

I don't know how it feels to be you, but I can imagine

I could bet that most times you are happy, but sometimes your life wreaks havoc

And I bet you don't know how much I love you

But I look up to God and hope that you at least have a clue

All I ever wanted to do was to take your pain away

To give you genuine love and to make you smile each day

But like most of us, we push the good ones away

We chase the ones who we are uncertain about 

Vulnerably giving them the benefit of the doubt

But you know what, that is okay

My love, feel free to chase whomever that you seek

Just don't come around trying to now seek me

Oh my, how those words hurt to say

Because every inch of my soul would illuminate on that day

But I know that there can not be an us

If it were to be a you and I, then it would have happened in our previous life

If you shall ever find true love again

I must say that for me, there would be a bittersweet feeling

But whatever happens, I will never forget about you..

My friend

And to be perfectly honest, if we could do this all again..

I'd still choose you
