This Time Last Year

Folder: 
Starting Over

It's been a year since we broke things off,

Deciding to just be friends, nothing more.

For I was too hung up with the past,

I couldn't shove those memories out the door.



I wasn't ready to make another commitment,

I guess things just happened too fast.

If I could go back to this time last year,

I'd do my best to make our relationship last.



Having you in my life is wonderful,

I'd never want to lose you as my friend.

I need you to know that I still love you,

And that the feelings I have will never end.



Maybe it's because we've been friends so long,

Hell, I've known you since the second grade.

I feel like I've known you forever.

I wonder what would have happened, had I stayed?



I know that you're involved with someone else,

And the best I wish for you both.

But the fact that I ran away from you,

I cannot help but loathe.



If only you knew how much I love you,

And how scared I was before,

If only you knew how much I adore you,

I'm not afraid of love anymore.



If anything ever happens,

And you find yourself suddenly free,

Please look me up, give me a call...

Because by your side is where I want to be.
