I keep waiting on you to return
from where ever you have gone
Hoping in my silence you'll learn
that neither of us was wrong

And I won't continue to chase you
Cause I feel that ive chased you away
And whether or not that's true
It's the conclusion I've reached today

And every time I see you,
I have to turn my eyes away
As regardless what my heart thinks true
My mind reminds me neigh

And I think I could have loved you
And now I'm afraid to say
I don't know if I can again
On a future day.

And I don't think I can wait
Until that distant day
For me to reach out to you again
And for you to turn away

Which is why i sit and write of love
And things I don't understand
As one day in my future
I think maybe that I can

I wish that I could love you,
But it's not like I haven't tried
But rather when I tried to near you
Each time I've been denied

It's not that I'm afraid of commitment,
But rather to my dismay
That every time I turn to you,
That's when you turn away.

So I sit here sunken broken
As I don't have the strength to stand
Knowing I should have this spoken
Sooner, when I had the chance
