I Have To

I have to. . .
Look the other way
When thoughts of you
Stir inside my head, and

I have to. . .
Not rush to answer
When your call
Rings my telephone.

I have to not want you. . . . not need you.

I have to. . .
Stop the dreaming
When you consume
My restless nights, and

I have to. . .
Escape far away
When your power
Pulls me to your embrace.

I have to not want you. . . . not need you.

I have to. . .
Say goodbye, farewell
When you devour
My every thought, and

I have to. . .
Not look back
When I hear you
Call my name.

I have to not want you . . .not need you
