They walked hand in hand
Through tarragon fields
Where young lovers dream
And reticence yields
They walked hand in hand
Through tarragon fields
Where young lovers dream
And reticence yieldsHe carried her books home from school
All for the sake of love
They kissed on the back row of the pictures
All for the sake of love
They walked down the aisle in June
All for the sake of love
they happily lived in a one bedroom flat
All for the sake of love
They worked hard and scrimped and saved
All for the sake of love
They became a family in a bigger home
All for the sake of love
She divorced him after five years of marriage
All for the sake of lust
I would put you on a pedestal
and prostrate myself before you
I would worship you like a god
I would proffer my heart
On an ornate silver platter.
For your avaricious consumption
I would give you all my love
Unconditionally, unrequited
And thank you for your indifference
I would cherish you in my life,
Even if you broke my heart in pieces.
I would look upon you lovingly
And gratefully receive your look of disdain
All this I would happily endure
Just to feel, for the briefest moment
The warmth of your embrace
I would have given her the world
I‘d have written her name in the stars.
I would have given her what was mine
And not demanded that it be ours
Or I’d have sold my soul to the devil
Yes, I would have done all this
I would have done all this and more
And in return, receive a single loving kiss
I loved her so much
I forgot about me
I surrendered myself
I just thought about we
I loved her so much
I always thought about us
But behind my back
She abused my trust.
I don’t like repetition
But I will never complain,
When you tell me you love me
Again and again.
For so long you have been my friend
But you've grown nearer to my heart,
And now I want our friendship to end
And the longed for love affair to start
