If I Had To Choose, by itty bitty Subscribe to rss feed for itty bitty

If I had to choose, I'd want your smile
Not my happiness
If I had to choose, I'd want you to be free
Not forced to be mine
If I had to choose, I'd choose no one else but you
But I'd let you have your way
If I had to choose...
I’d never forgive myself

You make my heart ache everyday that I can't be around you
I wonder if you're thinking of me
If you tell your friends about me
One said you did, but then, he said you stopped
One said you liked me, but then, you didn't
Why the change of mind? 

If I had to choose, I'd want your smile
Not my happiness
If I had to choose, I'd want you to be free
Not forced to be mine
If I had to choose, I'd choose no one else but you
But I'd let you have your way
If I had to choose...
I’d never forgive myself

I'm always the friend, never the girl
That's all I am to you
But I want more
You want nothing else
So I'll keep my feelings hidden
I don't want to hold you against your will
I'll stay the friend...
And never be the girl

If I had to choose, I'd want your smile
Not my happiness
If I had to choose, I'd want you to be free
Not forced to be mine
If I had to choose, I'd choose no one else but you
But I'd let you have your way
If I had to choose...
I’d never forgive myself
And you still wonder why I'm in pain
Why the first one I look for is you
Why the last one I want is you
Stop confusing me
Get out of my head!
Either you want me or not
But I'll still love you
To the end of all time

If I had to choose, I'd want your smile
Not my happiness
If I had to choose, I'd want you to be free
Not forced to be mine
If I had to choose, I'd choose no one else but you
But I'd let you have your way
If I had to choose...
I’d never forgive myself

I know I can't explain
Nor would I want to
I don't know why
I just do
There's no explaining why I love you
I just...
Do

If I had to choose, I'd want your smile
Not my happiness
If I had to choose, I'd want you to be free
Not forced to be mine
If I had to choose, I'd choose no one else but you
But I'd let you have your way
If I had to choose...
I’d never forgive myself

It’s fun for me just to hear your voice
Over the telephone,
Or reading your words on the computer screen
Anything to know how you’re feeling
Anything to know that you’re paying attention to me
Not anyone else
Just me

If I had to choose, I'd want your smile
Not my happiness
If I had to choose, I'd want you to be free
Not forced to be mine
If I had to choose, I'd choose no one else but you
But I'd let you have your way
If I had to choose...
I’d never forgive myself

Nothing in the world can stop me
Nothing in the world can convince you
You're so oblivious!
Can't you see?
You're hurting me
Tell me, why do you do that
How do you do that? Tell me!
Why... I can't take this anymore, get out of my head!
Get out...
… Get out...

If I had to choose, I'd want your smile
Not my happiness
If I had to choose, I'd want you to be free
Not forced to be mine
If I had to choose, I'd choose no one else but you
But I'd let you have your way
If I had to choose...
I’d never forgive myself
