Linger

Were you lying all the time?
Was I just a game to you?
But I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Did you have to let it linger?
Did you have to? Did you have to?
Did you have to linger?

Linger - The Cranberries


Such is the power of love. We put our heart out there for the one we love knowing we will get hurt. When that person comes along, we just brace ourselves and hope for the best. Hope that he/she will love us enough not to break it. But the inevitable happens. Our hearts get broken. But it's okay. All because we love them. So we take back the pieces, mend it up, and put it out again for the next person who comes along. Knowing full well we will get it broken again. Knowing that we will get hurt. But we don't care. We just do it anyway. After all, if it doesn't hurt, its not love. Right?
