“The truth is simple, you do not die from love. You only wish you did.”

“I wish you love - and happiness
I guess I wish - you all the best
I wish you don't - do like I do
And never fall in love with someone like you
Cause if you fell - just like I did
You'd probably walk around the block like a little kid
But kids don't know - they can only guess...”

John Prine (1946–2020) American country singer/songwriter
