Have you ever been in love
In love so deeply
It hurts

Your heart and soul devoted
To that sweet whisper
And you smile

Together you move as one
Singing in grace and beauty
Clinging to innocence

But then he asks you to change
To be someone you're not
To take a risk

On the outside you agree
Smile and bite your lip
Peacefully lying

But on the inside you're a tornado
All hell breaking loose
Holding back the tears

So what do you say?
What can you say?
To please him

For if true love outlasts any obstacle
What am I supposed to do
If my obstacle is love
