Both of Us

I opened up, let you in. And still you walked away. But it's okay, because I'll love myself enough for the both of us. If I flew to where you are, Would you let me see your face, one last goodbye. I just want to tell you I love you. But you don't need to say it back, I'll love myself enough for the both of us. I gave my all to you, made you a priority. And yet all I got in return was single word answers. Still, I loved you so true, but it was never returned. But it's okay, I'll love myself enough for the both of us. I'll love myself enough for the both of us ... I just hope to love myself enough for me.
