I Should Go

I should go So down deep I know I should just leave you alone I should once again Control my feelings and pretend Push them so far down and let all this end Bury everything so that again I'll forget Wish away what I've been going through and lose sight I did it before right Hell what's a few more regrets Go ahead do it what's the use seems like I really now have the excuse To try to move on From your life be gone To hold my head high And carry on Problem is I did it before I did walk through And I shut the door Then all the memories, regrets, cherished moments, and yes the few fights Came rushing back in my life It all made my heart take flight So here I am back to you I did it for so long Believed that in your life is where I didn't belong But I soon found out I was wrong I started searching for you Each and every chance I had Then when it fell through yet again I would feel so sad But fate stepped in You called saying you received my letter So I believed that things all around me would turn out better Eventually I told you What I had really been needing to say That my feelings for you Has never gone completely away Guess you wish you had not ever made that call Cause now I haven't been able To reach you at all Quite some time has now gone by Since my confession You would think I've learned my lesson I've been told being in love Can make you do things You would never normally think of Have you ever known me to really Pour my heart out to so many in this way Never quite like this So listen, really listen to me When I say I can't stop thinking of you all the time Every single day And in every single way Yes I know I should walk on by, damn it run like I've done some kind of crime But don't you see I can't Not this time I have to keep taking the chance On the hope for romance No matter how it hurts or why No matter just how much I'll cry It's not that easy anymore I can't walk back through that door I know we can't have Exactly what we had before Because we were so young And didn't know or understand our own selves Let alone the other Back then our lives as we have now come to know them Had only just begun But now what we could have is a greater love You know the one We've both been in search of Where you close your eyes and thank God above I really should go The way I see it though Is I have no choice this time No I don't I should leave you alone But I can't, damn it I won't
