I Wish I Could Tell You...
It's funny how the ones you love
Seem to be the farthest away
The first time I met you
I felt as though I was in a dream
I saw you and I knew
I would love you
That day was nearly 4 years ago now
Over those years my feelings and I grew
I wished on a thousand falling stars for you
But I seemed to be just another person
You passed by in the halls
Sure we are friends, we always have been
But I longed for you
In ways that you couldn't understand
And I waited
And waited
Last year we went out to the movies
I took my chance... tried to hold your hand
You said you were shocked
And it was at that time I stopped being real
2 weeks ago, the day finally came again
You told me that you liked me
I felt as though I was walking through the clouds
And I thought you felt the same way too
Yet I brushed you off
I couldn't comprehend the thought
Of actually having you by my side
You had been mine in my mind for so long...
You said one night that you loved me
How could I believe you?
You wanted to know what I felt for you...
Yet I could never tell you that I loved you
After saying the three most-precious words,
I found out that you didn't mean it--
"I just wanted to see what she'd do... I was testing her"
I said "you are my high-school crush"
Hoping for some feeble attempt to win you back
And you asked me out again
And how could I believe you?
I questioned you and you backed away
Now I can do nothing else
Except wait
For you to find out that you love me...
And I will wait until the end of time for you
And I hate myself because of that
But I love myself because of that
And I will continue to wish on thousands of falling stars
And I will continue to hope beyond hope...
For you are the love that will always be there
And you are the love that no one understands
