Pulling Back

Pulling back my broken heart Before you can finish tearing it apart Now I am finally beginning to see That you never meant to love me Desire for me is not nearly enough Why should leaving you be so tough Your sweet ways and masculine charms Won’t keep me happy in your arms Love is needed, love is required Without love, my heart grows tired Of waiting for you to say to me I love you as you love me What will I do to slowly end This love affair with my dear friend Our weekends together will happen less My phone calls will be less frequent, I guess No longer will you hear from me How deep my love for you can be Fewer kisses and cuddles and late nights You say you’re not ready, I guess that’s right My goodbye will be so very slow I will be gone before you even know That we could have had it all, my dear If falling for me wasn’t your biggest fear
