Friendly Fire (Shot my Own Foot)

Everyone told me but I knew better Trade a lifetime of joy for one alone Shared far too much in one little letter If only, if only I would have known A proposition I couldn't refuse An agreement based on baser instinct I won't ever say I wasn't enthused My love was rejected right on the brink We have many adventures still ahead Separately, but I wish you hold me dear Where we were, gardens lush, few seldom tread I can only pray to quell biased fear If ever my stained soul finds you again Before our trials have found proper end I should think to call you my long lost friend With fullness of love embrace you once again
