I know you say we can be friends
But I still love you
I can’t be without you
You’re my one and only
And forever and ever I made a promise that
I wouldn’t let you leave but you just got up
And walked right out on me.
We’re meant to be and I know we are.
Can’t I just have one more chance to prove
To you that I can change.
I can’t lose you and I won’t let it happen but
I want you happy and sometimes I wish
She would see how much it hurts me to know
That she’s got you now and I don’t.
