If I LOVED YOU, I would change the world for YOU
Yeah, if I LOVED YOU
I would get down on my knees and beg for YOUR acceptance
I would build YOU a temple, and a holy city
I would make the world bow before YOU
Yeah, if I LOVED you
I would rearrange the stars in the heavens
To center around you
I would organize world peace
To keep harm from you
I would harmonize vibrations like Buddha
Write you eloquent poems like Pablo Neruda
I would pound my heart into my sleeve
I would carve it into the mountains
I would sing you a thousand love songs with the voice of the ocean
I would caress you with the embrace of the breeze
I would embrace you with the loving strength of the typhoon
I would make all that is mine yours, but not before I made ALL that is mine
Simply to give it to you
Yeah, I’d do all of this and more
If I loved you
But as it stands
i am fearful
i am meek
i see you and i avert my eyes, not in disinterest, but in fear
Fear of rejection
Because it is not I that LOVES YOU
Or I that LOVES you
Or even I that love you, or YOU
But merely i, nervous, insignificant i
That loves YOU
