I Can't Love You

written by: OurSacredHonor

Your eyes lock with mine
See right into my soul
And it feels like my mind
Has lost all control

I want to tell you everything
But I cannot let the truth bring
Pain to you
You know it's true

You've left your fragile heart in my hands
But I'm incapable of living up to these demands
As much as I would love to...
I can't let myself fall in love with you

Please close your eyes
And stay a while
Give me a chance
To admire your perfect smile

Don't go away
Oh please stay
Stay right here
But I fear

You've left your fragile heart in my hands
But I'm incapable of living up to these demands
As much as I would love to...
I can't let myself fall in love with you

Your eyes are magnetic
They draw me in
I can't help but stop and stare
At that oh so playful grin

I wish that I could hold you in my arms
I wish that I could keep you safe from harm
I stare into your eyes so intently
But I'm scared, cuz I'm afraid to see

You've left your fragile heart in my hands
But I'm incapable of living up to these demands
As much as I would love to...
I can't let myself fall in love with you
I don't want to be the one to break your heart
I don't want for you to hurt when we're apart
I fell for you
But I can't love you
No I can't love you
...but I do
