You Were My Person

I Want You To Want Me Too

We started out loving and never wanting to leave each other.

I don't know what happened.

I guess feelings for other people just got in the way, again.

This isn't the first time this has happened.

When you fell for her the first time, I was taken by surprise.

They must feel special, to be loved by you.

I know how great it feels.

Or, at least I think so.

Even if it was just pretend, I still don't want it to end.

Even if she is prettier, more easy-going, easier to talk to, or smarter, I still want you to pick me.

It sounds selfish but I just want you to pick me over her.

I want to be your first choice.

I want to be able to call you mine and not have to question how you feel about me right after I say it.

But I know that won't happen.

Because she's prettier, more easy-going, easier to talk to, and smarter.

And I don't blame you for wanting more than what I can give you.

I would do the same thing.

But the only difference is that you are my first choice.

You are the smarter one.

You are the easiest to talk to.

You are the most easy-going one.

You are the prettier one.

You will always be the best option for me, but that feeling isn't always reciprocated.

And because of this, I will let you choose her.

I will let you do whatever you deem necessary.

As long as I know that I will be strong enough to say no when you come running back.

When you come begging at my feet to take you back, I'll be able to say no.

To say that you've broke my heart one too many times.

And I want to know that I will find someone that loves me more than you ever did, but that won't change one certain fact that will haunt me forever.

They won't be you.
