How and why does my heart continue
to feel so strongly for you?
The love never seems to fade
Even when you lie as you do.

You know the depths of my feelings
Your ears have heard, your heart has felt.
It's been made very clear.
What did I ever do to deserve this pain?
Still, I love you my dear.

I try to believe what you tell me,
I honestly do
But wasn't it you who told me...
"It's impossible for you to love 2"?

When you speak these false truths,
do you think that you're protecting me?
Protecting my heart from being crushed once more?

I don't believe that!
You are protecting yourself
Thinking about only you,
and how in both worlds you can score.

Ya' know, They say, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder."
In this case, I would say, "Because of this distance, I grew wiser."
Due to the absence, i'll be lonely,
but this has given me the much needed space for thinking things through clearly.

My heart is breaking,
but in time will heal.
The light has been shed...
What I thought we had
was never for real.

Through your deceptive ways,
(and I know i'm no saint),
you have brought "US" to a close,
'though most likely unintended.
You have pushed me away.
Still considering the love that I have--
I wont allow this to be mended.
