Too Long

i'm sorry to say this but i must leave
through all the confusion and turn abouts
its not worth staying
you mean the world to me
but those who know me best know it can't be
I wish I was a bigger person and show you love
but with you over there and me over here
how can i show you anything besides pics and such
They say if it's love and if it's meant to be
we'll come together and than you'll see
and if it isn't thank you for the time you've known me
you're a very special person 
you're a very pretty person
you're a very comapassionate person
i've had a lot of time 
a lot of time to think of this ordeal of mine
but i can tell in your voice this isn't what you want
I want you here to be with me because....
you changed my life
changed my ways
put a smile on my face every single day
but i know the distractions and attractions
have us on two different wave lengths
i hope that person who changes your life comes soon
don't wait to long though it might pass you by
and you never even knew
they say don't pass up the good thing
i'm not passing you up i just need time to think
you've waited long enough very patiently
it's hurting me to hurt you unintentionally
one day i hope you find it in your heart 
to forgive me and one day i hope we can both be happy...
hopefully together but maybe apart
