| I don't care anymore |
| About the one I should |
| Or shouldn't love |
| I feel so alive |
| With the one |
| I shouldn't have |
| It is amazing |
| That two people |
| With such disparate lives |
| Can merge them into one |
| So unconventionally smooth |
| I love you |
| I've loved others as well |
| But |
| there is more than love |
| To consider |
| There is how one feels |
| In the presence of another |
| And with you |
| I feel so alive |
| Maybe I could do "better" |
| But "better" can be so stifling |
| Let me break the accepted |
| the expected routine |
| And live |
| You are the one |
| I shouldn't have |
| Then again |
| Maybe you're the one |
| That I should |
