It's been a year now and I know that's a sin
I let you play in a game you couldn't win
But how can I tell you, you'll never hold my heart
Please forgive me, I've known this from the start
And I wanted it, and I tried my best
But I can't change who you are
I've made a bigger mess
So please understand
That we're too different and it's driving me mad (oh)
I want you to know
That I'll always love you but I have to let you go
♪
I'll miss your green eyes and the words that you write
But I'll always have them and the letters under my bed
Believe me when I say, "I wanted to be yours"
But I can't hold on, I'll always want something more
And I wanted it, and I tried my best
But I can't change who you are
I've made a bigger mess
So please understand
That we're too different and it's driving me mad (oh)
I want you to know
That I'll always love you but I have to let you go
♪
The kind of love I want is where I feel most alive
But with you a part of me has started to wither and die
So please understand
That we're too different and it's driving me mad (oh)
I want you to know
That I'll always love you but I have to let you go
