Everything Was Simple

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 loose 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.

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
