I was always afraid to tell you,
How much I truly cared.
I knew that I couldn't have you,
Despite the times we shared.
I thought about you constantly,
You were always in my head.
I just can't accept the fact,
That you want her instead.
I was always here for you,
I listened to every word you said.
You treated me really special,
I no longer felt so dead.
You said we would be friends forever,
That someday we could become more.
You're just not ready for a relationship,
I don't want things to end up like before.
I know I'm not so special,
I'm the girl who always finishes last.
I just don't want to lose you forever,
I don't want to become part of your past.
I think about your future,
Your happiness is what I work for every day.
I want to tell you how I feel,
Yet I never know what to say.
I know you're that one perfect person,
Who I never thought I'd find.
And now that I've finally found you,
There's someone else on your mind.
I know you really like her,
I'm sure she likes you too.
Yet I'm still so jealous,
That I'll never have a chance with you.
I wish I could explain to you,
The words I need to say.
Why I cry about you every night,
And miss you every day.
I have these incredible feelings,
I've never felt them before.
I really think you're my only one,
Although we remain friends and nothing more.
I see you as practically perfect,
Better than anyone else could be.
I know that perfection is impossible,
But you seem that way to me.
I need your hugs to make me smile,
Letting go seems to be so tough.
Even though I never forget them,
Knowing they mean nothing to you is so rough.
I can't stop these feelings,
You mean more than the world to me.
I can be in a room filled with gorgeous guys,
But you're the only one I'd ever see.
I have always wanted someone like you,
Someone to be here when I cry.
You never did anything to hurt me,
You never told me a single lie.
I know you don't feel the same way,
I understand that I'm not so great.
I blame myself for ruining my life,
I guess I found you too late.
I'm sorry if I made your life worse,
I don't want you to be unhappy at all.
I just want to be more noticed,
To know you will catch me if I fall.
In the end, I'm happy,
To hear you say we're friends.
You know I will always be here for you,
I hope your success never ends.
I want you to have the perfect girl,
Whether you have to date a lot or just a few.
Your happiness is the most important thing to me,
Even if that means I will never be with you.
*Yeah, I realize this probably doesn't belong in the 'I Love You' category, but at the same time I also think it kind of should be under here. I don't know, whatever. Let me know what you think, despite what category it really belongs in haha.
