    Story Behind the Song
    More specifically, a re-evaluation of the themes in "I Don't Know How To Love Him."

    Lyrics
    No one knows just where You came from
    No one knows just why
    A dozen others, no one ever
    comes as close as I
    Here in me You find Your comfort
    My hand soothes Your head
    Still I long for something more than
    what I chose instead
    So You see, I can't be
    All the good You see in me
    Magnified in Your eyes
    You would take me up on high, I
    comprehend, soon we'll end
    Until then I'm left to face this
    mortal fear of the fire
    if You learned of my desire

    My fear of death can't hide
    My affection ever true
    My desire is to sin
    But to sin for only You, You are
    the essence of my life
    You're the anchor of my soul
    At the slightest of commands
    I have given up control
    Of how I lived my life
    Day to day how I discerned
    Now Your word is my guide
    All I ask for in return
    Is a chance, just one night
    You don't have to be so strong
    Bring You down, I just might
    Show You where You might be wrong

    In my dreams, so it seems
    is the only place You'll be
    as I want, but these thoughts
    Are they from the enemy?
    If it's true, that You're through
    and we were not meant to start
    I'd still have to repent
    that I've done it in my heart
    Rising up in my lungs
    is a cry to be absolved
    Let me go, tell me now
    while Your heart still beats at all
    In the end, soon to come
    after all has been observed
    will I die for my lust
    like they'll kill You for Your words?
