To love like us...

I saw the look of love in someones eyes the other night
I know this look because I've seen it before
I've seen it and I've felt it
I know this look like the back of my own hand
Because this kind of love
Is the love I live by
I've often wondered if others feel a love in the same way
As I myself feel it, intense and powerful as it is
Wreckless at times and often vacant from logic
In this night I realised it was not only me
Who feels passion in the same way as I do

She was kind, anyone could see it in her eyes
And loving beyond reason
I think we all believe we're cursed
When we're born to love in such a way
We are cast upon by a spell so powerful
It is able to shake our entire being
And create pictures of desired fantasies
Dreams about a land where those we love
Will love us back in the exact same way
Once we hit that almighty and powerful love
There's no turning back
But often no reason to stay

We do not choose the people we love
Our hearts make those decisions for us
That's what creates its honesty
And the power of this very emotion
This innocent form of feeling
Is what makes a gentle heart beat faster
The purity of love is only held within the hands
Of those willing to be hurt by love
The knowledge of such pain to come
But ability to continue to do so
That is the blessing we do not, in these times see

And although we never seem to love
Those, who love in the way we do
We should never let our truths be changed
Or altered in order to create realism
Where the fantasy once stood
As to live a modified form of yourself
Would be the ultimate lie
A lover is a dreamer
And a dreamer does not live to lie
To love like you is true
I saw it in your eyes

And although they might be blind to your depth
Or unwilling to change their ways
I would love for you to know
That when the night becomes cold
When the years continue to go by
It will be you who stands in the back of a mind
A mind full of regret
As they realise that, to love
In the way that we do
Is the greatest gift of all
Never change, you're perfect the way you are
Even if not seen, by the one who you adore
