Why love?
Why did we bother to try love?
Why did we foolishly stop to say hello
Instead of going our ways?
But your heart was free
And mine was on my sleeve
Were we brave?
Or were we just naïve?
So tell me, why love?
When all things end in goodbye, love?
Why did we dream that this fate would not be ours
When even stars up above
Ask where their glow went
Love lasts one moment
And then that final task
To sigh and ask
Why love?
