How do I shut the door and walk away
When all I want to do is stay
I cannot close the door I've tried
If this was false I would have lied
I know I need to say goodbye
I promise you I'll really try
To only love you as a friend
My broken heart I know will mend
It will be hard at times I know
If you find someone, I'll have to go
And let you fall in love again
But is it worth all this pain
I do not blame you I would never
My thoughts of you I'd simply treasure
And keep within my weary heart
Those thoughts of you right from the start
I hope she treats you good and fair
And if she falters I'll be there .
