If I Had The Choice

If I had to choose between loving you

And breathing my very last breath

I would use this opportunity

To say I love you

This is how deep my feelings are for you

To the ends of the earth I would go

To find you again if we ever were separated

I'm a mere mortal trying to explain

My love for you is on a higher plain

One that's reserved for the ultimate lovers

Those that have discovered

The true meaning of this emotion

The reward for making the journey through life

With its many tragedies and pitfalls

So now you see my love

If I had to choose between loving you

And breathing my last breath

I would use my last breath

To say I love you
