Lyrics:

How many times do I have to prove that
I am still in love with you
When all of it’s said and done
I hope you are my only one but

I won’t wait forever for you ‘cause
I still dream of something new
Can I share that dream with you

You seem so sure that you’re going to lose me
Where have I gone from you
I’ve been here all along
How could you be so wrong love

I’ve been here just waiting for you ‘cause
I still dream of a life with you
Can I share this dream for two

When I feel without hope and 
When I’m lost and alone 
I dream of you 
Do I dream for two
Or am I too late
Are you just here to say you’re gone

When all of it’s said and done
Tell me are you my only one

I won’t wait forever for you ‘cause
I still dream of something new
Can I share that dream for two
Will you be my something new
Something old 
Say I do share this dream for two

Don’t let me get out of this kiss
Don’t let me say what I say
The things that scare us today
What if they happen someday
Don’t let me out of your arms
For now

What if the sword kills the pen
What if the god kills the man
And if he does it with love
Well then it’s death from above
And death from above is still a death

I don’t want to live without you
I don’t want to live without you
I don’t want to live
I don’t want to live
Without you

For those who still can recall
The desperate colors of fall
The sweet caresses of May
Only in poems remain
No one recites them these days
For the shame

So what if nothing is safe
So what if no one is saved
No matter how sweet
No matter how brave
What if each to his own lonely grave

I don’t want to live without you
I don’t want to live without you
I don’t want to live
I don’t want to live
Without you
