I made a river from my front door to yours   I built myself a raft with my living room doors   But when I set sail to find you   I never reached your shore      I gave you my new sweater, so you would be warm   To protect you from the winds of the mighty winter storm   And though I was nearly freezing   I didn't really mind      And even though she'll never need me   I will save my love for her   Til the day when she discovers that my love won't fade away   Til the day      I gave you flowers, so everyone would see   That the light behind your eyes, is the light that shines on me   But you never gave them water   So they withered to the ground      I am so tired, I don't know what to do   Should I curse the dreaded day in which I fell in love with you?   No, I think its worth the loneliness   Just to see your face      And even though she'll never need me   I will save my love for her   Til the day when she discovers that my love won't fade away   Til the day
