UNREQUITED LOVE

How can I forget to breathe? How can birds forget to fly?
How can my heart forget to pound?
Every time you are near
    Once I learn to care
    It’s terribly hard to forget
    So help me God
    Take this ceaseless torture away
Put it to the farthest star
Where no wind will stir
    Then perhaps I’ll forget to pray
    That someday you’ll be mine
