For your *candy* eyes
And your [addictive] smile
B.r.o.k.e.n into tiny p i e c e s

from my eyes and
G_l_i_d_i_n_g down my cheeks
You look at me
You smile and ~wave~
And even though it's killing me
I'll ~wave~ back
Why do I {torture} myself like this?
Making myself

(But in a mental sense, of course)
Why?
Because I love you so
And you can only be \happy/
*With her*
(And I really want you to be happy)
But I can't live
*Without you*
