I Do
I try to hide it, pretend I don’t care,
Admitting I miss you, I wouldn’t dare.
I hate the way, everything I do,
Somehow reminds me about you.
Everywhere I go, I don’t have a choice.
It never fails, I always hear your voice.
I know it’s in my head, I know you aren’t near.
But I would do anything, just to have you here.
For one more night, for one more day,
I wouldn’t let you go I’d ask you to stay.
I hate the way we ended things
Your cold shoulder is what still stings.
You left me with no words, no explanation.
It was over so quick you had no hesitation.
I feel so stupid when you enter my mind.
I don’t know how I could’ve been so blind.
Did all we go through really mean nothing?
I know in my heart we were more than a fling.
I think you were scared and that made you run
I think you were scared to admit I was the one.
The pain in my chest when I hear your name,
A fear overcomes me that I’ll never have the same
Feelings for another guy as I did for you,
The one guy to whom I would have said "I Do"…
