In Love

I'm in love with a boy.
Friends we have agreed to be,
Until we know we can love eternally.

How do you only be friends to the one you love?
Uncertain though I am,
For him, I will build a dam.

Can I build it strong enough to hold?
'Cause within it will be held my love,
Until we can fly together as doves.

Will I survive this test?
Strong and patient I must be,
Until there can be a you and me.

It's his path he protects me from.
Though going for me, my life he sees.
It's him, my life really needs.

Very much he still cares for me.
So strong and patient I will be,
Until there is a you and me.

Oh, I hope we can love eternally.
But even if we'll never be more than friends,
I know that our friendship never ends.

But still, I am in love with a boy.
His name is unlike any scenic view.
His name is Matthew.

And I...
I am in love.
