Goodbye

There's this secret inside of me
that I feel I have to hide
But to keep it in is killing me
So in you, I must confide.

I have someone I love
who I've been with for a while.
but if I said I was happy with him
then I'd be in denial.

At first, I'll admit
I was happy with him
but this is how I feel now
and that was way back then.

It's been almost a year now
but how much of us is real?
I can't tell you I'm in love with another.
I can't tell you how I feel.

I don't know how to tell you
that this other guy, you know
he used to be your best friend
and for that, I feel so low.

We've been together before
Some say we had a real romance.
but because of people in the way
I feel we never really had our chance.

I want us to have a chance
I want us to give it a shot
I understand if you're hurt
I understand I'm risking alot.

But I can't continue to live my life
Always thinking "What if?"
I have to give our love a chance
I have to know "what if?"

So I'm sorry I have to do this
and I'm sorry if I make you cry.
But because of what I can't risk missing
To you, I have to say goodbye.
