I know that “sorry” doesn’t quite cut it
The pain that I feel coming from your face
I hope someday soon you will rise above it
And we will both have happier days.
I know that I’m the one who caused it
With spoken words of such tragic power
It’s funny that things could have been so different
No more long ago than perhaps an hour.
The twisted irony of this whole choice:
It was made to cause you the least possible hurt
But I know that to you, that excuse is just noise
Since your heart is slowly sinking into the dirt.
But know this: that I want so much
To feel something, just something, for you
And if I had my way and I was the judge
Of what passed and what didn’t on this world of blue
Then I would love you
I’d take you in my arms and I would love you
You’d tell me all your secrets and
I’d tell you all of mine
We’d hold each other close
And be one for all of time
But I can’t
Choose how I feel
But if I could
I’d make that love real.
Every part of me says that you’re the one
‘Cept for my heart
You make me laugh, together we have fun
I want to hate being apart
But I don’t.
So know this: that I want so much
To feel something, just something, for you
And I know that it doesn’t help that much
To hear me speak these words so true:
I would love you
I’d take you in my arms and I would love you
You’re too sweet for me to lie
And I know that I’m making your heart die
It’s not right to pretend
That I see you as anything more than a friend
You know I can’t choose
How I feel
Which is sad cuz I know
Your love is real.
Your love is real…
Maybe this one time, this last time
We’ll look at each other’s eyes
You’re begging me, you’re pleading for me
To search my mind
There’s nothing there but guilt
For crushing the hopes you’ve built
About us
You know there can’t be an “us”…
So I’m turning now
Walking away now
I wish I loved you
You know I’d love You
Oh, I would love
You.
