"All or Nothing"

Song Playing: "You and I"




Why can't we still be friends?
Should it really be all or nothing?
Yes...the romance may be gone
But I still love you
Doesn't that mean something?

All or nothing
Is not the way for me
I could only hope that someday
This you would accept about me...

We had our times together
And we still have memories
Of our boundless love and bliss
These things I will always treasure
This happiness I will always miss

All or nothing?
Should we carry on this way?
Leaving behind what still is left
And just walking away?

Yes...you and I have changed
And gone our own way
But I will never regret
And I won't ever forget
How you always made my day

All or nothing...
Rings so deafly upon my ears
What I love most about you my love
Are the joys of all those years

Yes we had our troubles and
I claim to have fault as well...
But what about a friendship still
And the stories it still can tell?

All or nothing?
Is this how you really feel?
What happened to the "person"
I once held so very dear...

Why is halfway so undesirable?
Are the memories too hard to bear?
Why cannot we both be strong...
And carry on from there?

All or nothing
A friendship can never be?
Let you go if I must in remains
Of a loving memory

Our love may be lost
Never to return again...
I ask you still why you cannot
Still be a loving friend?

All or nothing...
Should not be a choice for me
Or should you decide
What's in best interests for me?

Now as friends we may never be
Never able to share again...
What I hold so dear still about you
Was having you as a friend

All or nothing?
Should we carry on this way?
Why is there a problem?
Why must today's and past feelings
Get in our way?

If I must let you go now knowing
We can never remain friends
I only wish and hope for you
All life offers and help it lends...

All or nothing
Is not the road I choose
It was your friendship...

I've chosen not to lose
