I guess I always knew
     You were going to leave my life
That you would find the day and place
     To move on to your next step
But knowing those things didn’t change the facts
     And I’m not ready to say good bye yet
I’m such a fool for letting myself
     Fall victim to your kiss
The sweetest kisses I’ve ever known
     Kisses I want to feel every day
Your passionate words have captured my mind
     And my body follows close behind
But now I have to find the way
     To let you go
You have a life to begin and I know
     I will someday fade from your mind
I want to try to remain friends
     But not if I’m the only one trying
You hurt me so deeply
     When you didn’t tell me your news
And you’ll never know
     How many tears I’ve cried for you
Someday, I hope you realize
     How much you mean to me
And down the road, when you think of me
     You’ll shed a tear for what could have been
