When You're Ready

If I can't love as I should I'll choose to love you as a friend That's what I tell myself, as if I could But that's as foolish as the wind To stand so close to the flames The match was struck long ago I knew I would never be the same Maybe that's something you didn't know Or perhaps you expected a change A moment may arise that sparks new wonder One that needs no guidance and has no range Could it just be a fool’s blunder? The day will come when you are ready I hope that you'll still remember me And that it’s me that causes your heat to beat unsteady So, we can discover what true love should be
