If there's one thing life has taught me,
It's that you can't want something too much
and similarly, you can't avoid anything too much.

The more you want it, the harder it is to attain.
The lesser you do, the easier it is.
Oh, the irony of life.

Whenever I ask myself why,
why it's so hard to get you,
I realized how much I wanted you.

More than a blind person wanting to see,
More than Romeo loves Juliet,
More than all the water in the oceans of the earth.

Maybe,
Maybe that's why I tried to avoid it.
Avoiding and blocking out all my feelings towards you.

But it seems like the more I avoid it,
The more it finds me.
It started out with a feeling, which then grew into a hope.

There is nothing more dangerous than hope.
Especially when it's too much,
It could bring you so high up.

High up with hope,
Hope that maybe, just maybe,
You'll see me - like how I see you.
