Standard (EADGBE)

I wish my love for you could die the way that your love did for me

 I wish that I could lay to rest the memory of how good it used to be

 If I could I'd take a gun aim it at the past and shoot to kill

 Instead I lay here every night

Chorus

 And oh my love for you is still alive and well

 And in the best of health

 Although it's been through hell

Since you left it hasn't shown one sign of giving up

 It still won't let me love

 Nobody else, my love for you is still alive and well

I didn't know that love could ever live this long all my itself

And keep on feeling just as strong as it was feeling on the day you left

In this cold and lonely bed the memories should die just from the chill

But it stays warm inside my heart

Chorus
