I know what I said, I know what I swore
But I can't keep the promise that I made before
I thought I could handle it after some time
But it just gets harder not getting to call you mine
I know we said friends, I know we'd agreed
But deep inside I have, Oh God, this need
I thought I just needed you, and I guess I was right
But the way I need you is the very way you try to fight
I know this isn't fair to you, with no technical wrongs
But I need to do what's right for me, should have all along
I know what I said, I know what I swore
But now I'm apologizing because I can't go back to before
