How Can I Not Love You
by Joy Enriquez
from the motion picture Anna and the KingCannot touch, cannot hold
Cannot be together
Cannot love, cannot kiss,
Cannot have each otherMust be strong, and we must let go
Cannot say what our hearts must know
How can I not love you?
What do I tell my heart?
When do I not want you here in my arms?
How does one waltz away from all of the memories?
How do I not miss you when you are gone?Cannot dream, Cannot share,
Sweet and tender moments
Cannot feel how we feel,
Must pretend it’s overMust be brave, and we must go on
Must not say what we’ve known all along
How can I not love you?
What do I tell my heart?
When do I not want you here in my arms?
How does one waltz away from all of the memories?
How do I not miss you when you are gone?
How can I not love you?Must be brave, and we must be strong
Cannot say what we’ve known all along
How can I not love you?
What do I tell my heart?
When do I not want you here in my arms?
How does one waltz away from all of the memories?
How do I not miss you when you are gone?How can I not love you when you are gone?
The only thing better than a motion picture set against an epic scale is one that is of epic proportions and is accompanied by music that perfectly fits the emotions evoked by the film.
A Yale graduate, Jodie Foster was outstanding in Anna and the King. If you haven’t seen it, get the DVD or video tape soon! It’s a stirring story set against and absolutely beautiful backdrop.
