Ultimatum

Scared and alone,
I hide in the corner.
How strong my love for you had grown;
All it gives me now is pain.
You have to choose,
Will it be me or her?
It's my heart I have to lose.
You can't have us both.
Break my heart,
What does it matter?
You've already torn me apart.
Choose and tell me now.
She still loves you,
But so do I.
Do you love her, too
Or is it me you love?
Go to hell;
Go to heaven.
Listen to the bells;
Listen to the screams.
No more tears,
Choose now.
It's gone on too many years.
Will it be me or her?
Tell me you choose me,
And we will build so carefully
Our life together.
Tell me it's her you choose,
And I will say nothing.
You have nothing to lose.
Tell me now who you choose.
