Letra da música: Love Is Not A Deed Of Ownership

I know it feels good to have someone to call your own
To share your world, your laughter, your fears
Every heart is searching for a shelter
But love can't be begged for, love can't be forced

Promises don't hold emotion
Bonds aren't kept by holding tight
Feelings won't accept a shackle
They won't bow to force or to fright

Choosing to stay is something different
Than staying out of obligation
When there's no truth, no honesty
What's left is only isolation

Love is only love when it's two way
When loving comes from wanting to
There is no possession, there is no blame
No one belongs to someone else

Love is only love when it's a choice
When it stays alive and spontaneous
Forcing affection kills the fire
And hurts more than a clean goodbye

Every lover dreams of being first
Of care, of time, of true attention
But love won't answer to authority
And never bends to pressure or tension

Whoever loves knows how to let go
Even when they're scared to lose
Because love is not something you control
And watching over isn't love

Love is freedom by its nature
No demands, no coercion
The moment you chain the other to you
Love turns into contradiction

Love is only love when it's two-way
When loving comes from wanting to
There is no possession, there is no blame
No one belongs to someone else

Love is only love when it's a choice
When it stays alive and spontaneous
Forcing affection kills the fire
And hurts more than a clean goodbye

If you stay, then stay completely
If you leave, at least be true
Better the pain of an honest ending
Than an embrace that isn't you

Love is meeting, not a prison
Walking the same road side by side
Whoever loves respects the decision
Even when it hurts to say goodbye

Because real love
Is never imposed, never demanded
It only stays where there is
Freedom to choose to remain
