I thought I could make you love me
But it turned out I was wrong
But how can I let you walk away
Because you're where I belong
I'd hold you for a lifetime
I'd be there to make you strong
But you shattered all my hopes and dreams
And I knew that I was wrong
We started out so perfect
I don't know what went wrong
Every time I tried to kiss you
You'd pull away
And I didn't know what to do
You kept me at a distance
Don't deny you know it's true
Some times it was "Shut up!"
And some times it was slammed door
Sometimes you'd ignore me
Leaving my heart sore
So now you ask me all these questions
As you stare into my eyes
But I figured you out
You can take off your disguise
Maybe I still adore you
But I don't want you back
I'll pile up the memories
All in a nice neat stack
You touch my hand
And you don't expect me to withdraw
Was it confusion in your eyes
Or something else I saw
I don't know why you need me to stay
You've done your dark deed
I've taken enough blows from you
And distance is what I need
I drive away into the night
With the memories of your face
And I wonder if I left the slightest mark
Or will you let me go without a trace
It's easy to forgive you
And not so easy to forget
I know I'm far from perfect
And I know I made mistakes
I hear your voice in a song
And again my heart breaks
I wanted to turn back a million times
I didn't want to let you go
Did you ever see how much I loved you
Did you ever know
You showed me almost no affection
And if you loved me you never let it show
So I'm better of without you
We don't deserve another chance
I still want to hold you
But I gave up on this romance
Maybe some day when you're all alone
You'll think of me with a small smile
And look up at the moon
And wonder if you'll see me anytime soon
Maybe you will realize
What a mistake you made
That night that you left without a trace
After you said "It's over!"
And slapped me across the face
I thought I could make you love me
But it turned out I was wrong
So I'll let you walk away
Because you're not where I belong
I'd hold you for a lifetime
I'd be there to make you strong
But you shattered all my hopes and dreams
And Now I know that I was wrong
