Stop Loving You

I wish I could stop loving you

Turn these feelings off
No more tears to cry
Trying to live a lie
With this my painted smile
Facing my toughest trial
 
I wish this was as easy
As you seem to think it should be
Unaware of the spell you cast
On this my fragile heart
Lost in the blueness of your eyes
Unable to see truth or lies
 
I’m lost in the sorrow
Of what will never be
Wishing I could forget
The truth and beauty of you
But you shine so brightly
As I dream of you nightly
 
I wish I could stop loving you
As I pick my heart up off the floor
Knowing it’s time to move on
Trying somehow to forget
While knowing this to be true
I’ll always love you
 
Will I find someone like you?
Touching me so deeply
Forever changing the man I am
With a heart so full of kindness
That these tears of sorrow
Won’t be gone tomorrow
