I wanted to let you

Know that I never meant to

Make things hard.

I wanted to let you

Know that I never meant to

Hand you my heart.

I want to let you

Know that I never meant to

Make you the subject of all these words.

I want to let you

Know that I never meant to

Hand you over to her.

I want to let you

Know that I never meant to

Ask you to walk away.

I want to let you

Know that I only meant to

Make you stay.

I want to let you

Know that I only meant to

Love you deeply.

I want you to let you

Know that I never meant to

Let this **** me.

But, I suppose

What they all say is true.

That things don’t always go as planned,

That sometimes plans fall through.
