Blessing or a Curse

I’ll never hurt you, oh no no I’ll never leave you But if I stay too long, would that be worse, Is it a blessing or a curse? Do you remember when we were sixteen, Making love in the middle of the spring? It was then that our love was new It was then that I first said I loved you, and I said I’ll never hurt you, oh no no I’ll never leave you But if I stay too long would that be worse, Is it a blessing or a curse? These initials were carved in a tree One was yours and I think one was me And we swore that our love would always last But look what’s happened to us now time has passed since I said I’ll never hurt you, oh no no I’ll never leave you But if I stay too long would that be worse, Is it a blessing or a curse? Sometimes truth hurts harder than lies And I see it in your eyes Sometimes living’s harder than death So now our friends are gonna have to choose And in the end everybody’s gonna lose Whatever happened to all of our vows? Why don’t we feel the same way now as when I said I’ll never hurt you, oh no no I’ll never leave you But if I stay too long which would be worse, Is it a blessing or a curse?
