you're gonna hate me when i tell you everything
you're gonna question whether you really know me at all
you will revisit every smile, and where it fit into the day
i know this is how it will play
and i try, oh i try to think of all the things
that i could do to let you know that i love
even so
i was not looking to do you wrong
was not looking for a change of scenery
don't remember where, or when, or how i did
but i'm hoping you'll forgive me
and i try, oh i try to think of all the things
that i could do to let you know that i love you
do you remember how we'd run in the summertime
do you remember how we'd run in the summertime
oh i try, i try so very hard
and i cry, i cry so very much
for i love you like you'll never let yourself feel again
i love you like a brother and a friend
i love you with my whole heart until it bends
i love you like a lover until the very end
but i'll always think of all the things you did
to let me know that you love me
but you're leaving
even so |
