Because I love you,

I have to make it known.

Because I love you,

I have to find a way to make it shown.

Because I love you,

I have to let you go.

 

At one point in my life, you were the best,

but now, you are just like the rest.

 

I trusted you with my all,

how was I supposed to know that you would let me fall?

They told me not to go for it,

how was I supposed to know I would end up in a pit.

 

Because I love you,

I now must let you know,

that I do not love you anymore.

You were a part of me, the best and the worst of my life,

I would have been happy to be your wife.

 

Because I LOVED you,

I hope for nothing but the best for you.

Because I loved you, I must let you go,

Because I loved you, you took me for granted.

 

Because I loved you,

I must forget you.

Because I loved you too much,

I must forget you.

I must forget how much I loved you,

and I must find someone.

I must find someone who loves me,

the way I loved you.

 

Becasue I loved you,

you damaged me.

Because I loved you,

I forgot who I was without you.

 

Because I loved you,

I must set you free.

Because I loved you with no love in return,

you better find a way to enjoy life without me.
