I knew
I really did
Loving you like this
It was unhealthy
6000 miles separate us before
Now it's only a few hours' drive
It's unhealthy
I know
But I still feel it
Can someone please help?
Please, take out my heart
Throw it away
Anything is better
Than this love
Because I knew
You'd take it
And never realize it
I knew
I knew
I always knew
I love you
