Close enough

All I want to do
Is be close enough to you
To know that you really care
To love you for who you are
And know you’ll never be too far

All I want to do
Is be close enough to you
To smell your cologne
To never be alone
To lay next to you on this bed
When three words are said

All I want to do
Is be close enough to you
But it will never be
A missing factor that is key
You don’t feel the same way
Three little words you will never say

All I want to do
Is be close enough to you
I’ll keep dreaming
My hope still gleaming
But you’ll just move on
And my happiness with you has gone

I know this oh so well. The best bet is to move on yourself. If your love is not good enough for her, then she isn't good enough for you. Find one that is. Good piece.

Regret not that which you have done,
Rather that which you haven't

You know, this almost sounds like it's directed towards men, but I would be quick to say as one, I've been on this end of the stick too.  Indeed the pain is felt here, by the writer, and the reader.
