I know it's dumb but I truly believe
Even after all this time I'm still still so naive
To think we were destined to be together
Yet hope lingers on the word "forever"
You see in my eyes you're always the one
Even after you informed me your attractionΒ Β was done
So you can tell me you no longer feel the same way
But the stubborn love in my heart is here to stay
I try to move on and find someone new
But for some reason can't get over you
I will never stop cherishing the memories shared
I lie to myself and pretend that you cared
I'm not sure what created the chasm between
I guess in reality you weren't as happy as you made it seem
I was deluded by fear and desperation
Blind to your dwindling captivation
Part of me wishes that you would miss us like me
Because deep down I know we were meant to be
