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.
