I'll Always Love You

I keep looking in all the places,
That you're supposed to be,
Hoping no one notices
You mean so much to me.

Thinking you will be there
Every time I turn around,
Daydreaming of whatever
With your eyes upon the ground.

Praying you won't forget me
And that we will never end.
No matter how much we both may change,
Please always stay my friend.

Wishing people would stop asking me
If I'm gonna be alright
Knowing that I'll cry it out
When I get home at night.

Trying not to open up
And keep it all inside.
Then soon it will all just go away
And I'll have nothing to hide.

Noticing people are being nicer
Cuz they don't think I'm OK.
But I guess they just can't see
I'm getting happier every day.

Convincing myself
I'll get over you.
Finally realizing
You're gone and it's true

Wondering why I
shed these tears
When you'll be back
in just a few years

Avoiding the question
"What happens if we change?"
While knowing nothing ever
Stays the same.

Praying to God
That we don't grow apart
Thinking of how that would
break my heart.

Not knowing
If you feel the same
Has started
Driving me insane.

Upset because you never
Called my phone
And for how you
Left me all alone

I've been lying here thinking
About our past
And all the times
I wish could last

Planning what I'll do
when I go back to school
Hoping you know no matter what,
I'll always love you.
