Do You Understand?

There's this thing and it's called pain
and i keep it tucked away inside
in the broken pieces of my heart
but it's just so hard to hide

When you ask me what is wrong
I'll say "I'm fine, why wouldn't I be?"
The better question is are you ok
my answer being "how could I be"

how is it that I can love you
and you can love me back
yet after all that we've been through
life won't cut us any slack

It hurt so much to see you go
I knew I'd never shake it
but if you walk away again
I know I'll never make it

I have you now which is great
but how long will it last?
We've had love like this before
and it ended oh so fast

so please don't stay you'll stick around
unless you intend to
and no matter what remember this
I truly do love you
