You've always told me "Follow your heart"

One of most heart touching poem. I know every one say to follow your heart but sometime it is hard to explain why to do so.

You've always told me "Follow your heart"
But I wouldn't know where to start
My heart is telling me to pursue something
That would break the world's rules of living

You've always told me "Follow your heart"
Helps me when everything has gone dark
If I do what my heart tells me to do
I wouldn't be ready to lose you

You've always told me "Follow your heart"
I can't do that, I don't want us to be apart
I can't see our friendship ending
But I can't go on pretending

You've always told me "Follow your heart"
But will my heart lead us apart?
Or will my heart bring us together?
I would want to be with you forever

You've always told me "Follow your heart"
One day, I will and I know where to start
I don't understand why God would let us meet
If there was no way for us to be...MEET...
