And I hate to say I love you
When it's so hard for me
And I hate to say I want you
When you make it so clear
You don't want me

I'd never ask you 'cause deep down
I'm certain I'd know what you'd say
You'd say I'm sorry, believe me, I love you
But not in that way

And I'd hate to say I need you
I'm so reliant
I'm so dependant
I'm such a fool

When you're not there
I find myself singing the blues
Can't bear, can't face the truth

You will never know that feeling
You will never see through these eyes
I'd never ask you 'cause deep down
I'm certain I know what you'd say
You'd say I'm sorry, believe me, I love you
But not in that way
You'd say I'm sorry, believe me, I love you
But not in that way
