Just Friends

I’m through with you, I set you free I can’t do this anymore I want to forgive All your deceit When you walked out of the door But I can’t forgive All the lies Told to save yourself Then to discover The reasons why You were with someone else I felt worthless I did feel shame And you ran away and hid But here you are Asking to be friends After all you did To say you’re sorry is not enough To make up for the loss of love I can’t forgive you I can’t forget When it’s still before my eyes The past is gone But in the present I’m still living with the lies I want to run But am held bound To promises I made Left with all the love That should be yours If you had only stayed I realize it’s more Than you can understand And I can’t explain But I can’t stop my heart And we can’t be friends When memories remain Letting go is not what I would choose And the choice really isn't up to you I cannot be just friends…
