Secretly Broken

The only man I've ever cried over
The only man I've ever loved
The only man I've ever cared for
And the crazy part is
We've never been together
So why do I care?
Why do I hurt?
Why don't you know how I feel about you?
Am I being selfish?
I want you,
You want me
But it's me who won't give in
I have my issues of why
But I won't give you a chance
I'd rather you
Not know
Hate me
And live your life
Than take that chance
And be happy
Forever with you
