Yes I know things are great now,
But you don't understand what I'm trying to say.
When everything is all over and done,
I'll be the one hurting when you go away.
It seems so easy for you,
To just continue this relationship.
Doing pretty much everything,
That exceeds the boundaries of just a friendship.
But it's not so easy for me,
To continue the way we do.
Because inside I know that I want more,
And I can't keep on waiting for you.
It hurts when I don't hear from you,
And I don't want to feel that anymore.
I just want things to go back to normal,
Kind of like they were before.
I know things haven't changed much,
Looking back from now to then.
But I'm a completely different person,
Than that girl you knew back when.
I've seen and learned a lot.
As the years have passed me by.
Enough to know that I deserve better,
Than to always have to ask why.
Like why can't we just be together?
Or why can't you just say,
That I'm completely overreacting,
And that it's really going to be ok.
Unfortunately I know what's for real,
And I knew it from the very start.
I put myself in this position,
I shouldn't have thought with my heart.
So I'll tell you a little secret,
If you'll promise you won't ask me to explain.
We have to go back to being just friends,
Because being in love with you only causes me pain.
