Why Me


You Said you didn't want to be in a relationship.

i never asked why?

i just respected your honesty and i didn't ask you to be with me. 

I gave you time i wasn't trippin.

I wasn't expecting you to bombard my life and make me feel like i was the one. 

You wanted to take me on a trip just you and me to Florida remember.

I remember i was on the phone when your mom said "i'll book the room just let me know when."

I was happy i thought i found someone who wasn't gonna play with my heart 

who was gonna treat me right.

i thought you where the best thing that had happen to me in a long time.

and you where until you broke my heart...

Yea i thought i wouldn't have to go through this again but i guess i was wrong huh?

I know you never meant to hurt me no one ever does but with you it was different.

i let you in knowing you could hurt me in the worst way but i wanted you.

I had to have you...you where the one i was gonna be with.

i had my heart set on you it only wanted you.

But, you where going through things a relationship could't fix

and i was the one stuck with your pain and mine

because as much as i wanted to help and make it all better i couldn't and that cut me deep. 

I'm sure you know my pain all to well and you...you passed it on to me and i don't know how to handle this.

It hurts i wanna cry but i can't i gotta act like i'm ok.

But behind closed doors away from friends and family i am so broken but no one will ever know not even you.

Yea i'm hurt but i would do it all over again and try to make it better i would do it all over again if thats what makes you happy.

i want nothing but the best for you.

i still love you i will always love you. 

I'll hold you down no matter what.

I'd do anything for you.

I wonder would you do the same?
