I’m sorry this is
How it has to be
It hurts just to say
It’s not you it’s me.

I know you can’t see
A reason to end
But how I’m feeling
I can’t be your friend.

It’s wholly my choice
You are not to blame
It is not your fault
You don’t feel the same.

I’m stopped dead by hope
Each day I live through
That you’ll feel in love
Like I am with you

I did not know when
I made you my friend
That I’d fall in love
And make this the end.

I feel so guilty
I’ve tried to be true
Now I’m selfishly
Abandoning you

Know that I love you
Though you feel betrayed
I need to find peace
From this mess I made.

I’ll fall out of love
Or move on some way
And I just hope you
Forgive me someday.
