Always (You)

I always said i couldn't keep you,
only let you choose to stay,
but isn't that always true for all people,
no matter how or when they;

i always told you i'd never ask
for you to stay or to go,
that i'd keep my wishes to myself
and let you decide on your own;

you always knew i couldn't keep you,
only quietly hope you'd choose to stay,
but isn't that true for all people
regardless of when or how they.
