"something I can't afford" lyrics

Why are we fighting when you're all I have?
Can we just put all our troubles to bed and leave it at that?
Come a little closer, please let me hold you
Can we both just say we're sorry for now and protect what we have?

'Cause I do, I really love you
And I know I've never felt this way before
'Cause I do, I really love you
And I know that I won't waste a second more
'Cause this life's too short
To lose a moment with you is something I can't afford

They say time is precious, and I know it's true
'Cause my biggest fear in this life is to run outta time with you
I know it's not easy, but that never lasts
I hope that you'll love all the parts of me no one has loved in the past

'Cause I do, I really love you
And I know I've never felt this way before
'Cause I do, I really love you
And I know that I won't waste a second more
'Cause this life's too short
To lose a moment with you is something I can't afford
