A shutter runs down my spine
eyes tell no lies, so i close mine
my whole body starts to tremble
i pull away and try to mumble
words so strange i whisper softly
(what am i saying? please, stop me)
"i love you but..." (this can't be good)
"...i'm thinking maybe that we should..."
a quiet tear i slowly shed
if silence could kill then i'd be dead
"...just be friends." i say at last
(is us really in the past?)
he looks at me, i look away
i had not planned for this today
my heart was set on forever
but my mind decided better
"i'm sorry..." i try to voice
(was this really my only choice?)
"why?" he sounds really sad
(i can't tell you. you'd just get mad)
"i just think that this is best"
(if he only knew the rest)
the door opens and out he goes
i'm still shaking from head to toes
i never thought i'd care so deep
i sit on the floor and start to weep
(this is why it had to end)
(this way he is just a friend)
(if we lasted longer i'd never let go)
i'd never be able to live all alone
"..i'm scared of ever losing you...."
(guess i just made my fears come true)
