I Should Just Say Good-bye

I know I'll never have you

I should just say good-bye

You've turned me down every way

No matter how hard I've tried

I told you that I love you

You said it will never be returned

You've been down this road a couple times

You don't feel like again getting burned

.

I know this is hard for you

I should have just stayed away

You made it clear, just how you felt

It's clearer every day

I should have kept it to myself

Just exactly how I feel

Believe me when I say, I tried

But I've never had it so real

.

Do you know how hard it is

To feel the way that I do

I have a woman that loves me now

But I am so in love with you

I use to think it was in my mind

But this pain here in my heart

Reminds me how much I miss you

Whenever we're apart

.

I know I'll never have you

I should just say good-bye

You've turned me down every way

No matter how hard I've tried

I told you that I love you

You said it will never be returned

You've been down this road a couple times

You don't feel like again getting burned

.

I guess it's hard on both of us

The way that things are

There's no way to go back now

We've come much to far

And I know someday you will say

You've found someone to love

That's the day my poor heart dies

The day I'm so afraid of

.

But what am I to do

I'm so in love with you

I would give everything I have

Just to be with you

Don't tell me it's not real

Don't tell me you don't feel it to

Because I think deep down inside

You feel the way I do

.
