Only cause you want me to,
I will move on and find someone new.  
Only cause you want to,
I will forget the sound of your voice.  
I will forget how you could make me smile and smile again on my own.  
Cause you don't want to make me smile anymore.  
I don't want you to just be a memory,
but cause you want me to
I'll leave you behind.  
And one day down the road,
we will see each other and smile awkwardly at one another.  
You will be with someone new and I will be too.  We will look back at each other as we walk away
I will wish I was her and you will wish you were him.  
Then we will both remember that you got what you asked for
We will carry on as some forgotten memories, and some old cute pictures of you and I.  
We will just be a thing of the past.  
Cause you wanted me to.
