Everything was simple,
Everything was fine.
I knew I couldn't have you,
And I knew why.

I tried to move on.
I dated other guys,
But then when we'd hang out,
I knew I had lied to myself.

You noticed me drifting.
You said, "Please explain,"
But I didn't want to lose you,
So I tried to deal with the pain.

It's hard to be with you.
It gets harder each day.
When I look into your eyes,
I feel my body floating away.

I miss the way it used to be.
You don't feel the change.
You don't know I really love you.
I'm sure to you; it's just a game.

As I close my eyes tonight,
I'll pray as I was taught to do.
I'll pray that you realize that
I love you but I can't have you.
