I love you, I do

I love you, I do

But love doesn't lie, love doesn't make you feel crazy or worthless,

love doesn't cheat, and love doesn't hurt and break you

I love you, I do

But I cannot be with you because being with you, loving you

means that I do not have enough love for myself to let you go

I love you, I do

But I deserve better and as do you

You do not love me like you used to

I love you, I do

But I deserve someone who loves me truly

and you deserve someone who you can truly love

<p>Everyone deserves someone who will give them the inifinite amount of love that they deserve. And sometimes that means letting go of people we love infintely because they do not love us the way we love them. And that is not fair to either person in the relationship.</p>
