I promise I will always love you,
but maybe not the way I used to--
with the insatiable hunger,
and the fast-paced passion.

I'll be there when you need me,
but maybe not like I used to--
dropping everything and run
to him because he called at 3 am.

I promise I will take care of you,
but maybe not like I used to--
falling sick myself because
I kissed him when he had that cold.

I'm sorry that I can't love you like that,
but I'll stay with you forever,
because you love me more than I can,
because he'd want me to move on.
