I am in love with you, but so is he.
You're in love with him; you also love me.
He is afraid of me,
But he need not be.
I love you too much to sabotage your family.

He fears the impossible; that I could ever steal you away.
I fear the impossible; that he could ever keep me away.
I want to be with you in the most platonic way
For any other would never be okay.

Uttered those words as we sat on the beach and it
Took just about everything out of me.
The force of the full moon made me speak
Of that which I'm most ashamed of.
I sighed, 'I have to tell you something'
You listened and your eyes went green
And you said that you felt the same.

I love you but you are in my reach
And you are never to be touched
Again.
I love you
