Head-over-heels...

Yes I will.

(didn't believe it 'til I said it)

No, I will.

(when you doubt me, more's my drive)

Then I would die.

(how else would you have me swear it?)

Look – I'm alive.

(please, let that be, a hope you keep inside)

Will you always?
(I only ask you for I doubt it)

But then you won't.

(how could he know that, enough to say?)

If that's a lie?

(everyone's perfect in their future)

And if you don't?

(no one's perfect come the day)

That's the most hateful thing you've asked me.

(she won't like this)

Love's a partnership, a swear.

(but then she'll see)

There's never really been a question.

(I believe in her misdirection)

So, then what keeps me standing here?

(her brimstone bright fallibility)

Do you love me?

(I feel so weak when I ask the question)

Then you don't?

(he's never made me feel alone)

Why won't you answer me?

(but I'm dizzy on his soft-toned cryptics)

You're such an asshole.

(I shouldn't say that – we're in love)
