Pretending You Don'T Matter Anymore
It's just another late quiet night
I sit here all alone trying to gather my thoughts
I hide behind this and I hide behind that
But the one thing I can't hide from is myself
I sit here and I pretend…
Pretend I don't miss you
Pretend I don't think about you
And pretend that I’m not still in love with you
I pretend that the silence and the distance
Between us doesn’t get the best of me
But you are that one person I can't shake
You are my first thought every morning
And my last before I close my eyes
For so long I have tried to move on
I've done everything I know to do
But my heart just won't let u go
It's you it's always ever been you
And there's nothing I wouldn't I do
If we could just be us again
I wish you'd tell me what it is I have to do
To make you mine again
You and me were perfect together
No one can compare
Or even come close
What we had comes once in a lifetime
And I don't want this to be the end
You say I have your heart
And babe you know you’ve got mine
I've told you this time and time again
And I've done everything to prove it to you
We’ve been thru too much
And we’ve come too far
To give up on us now
I've waited all this time
And if waiting is what it takes
I’ll wait now and forever
Cuz I could never feel for someone
The way I felt for you
You were you are and you always have been
My one true love
My soulmate
My best friend
And no one could ever take your place
I just wish you could see it to
There's nothing I wouldn't give
…If you’d just let me come back to you
I love you!!!!!!!
