I loved you, love you

Maybe always will

But there comes a time

When it's just too much

When my life can't be wasted

When I have to concede

When I open my eyes

And give up the dream

A time when my love

Is no longer enough

And I'm no longer fighting

For the heart I can't have

So I run up the white flag

And swallow my pride

As happily-ever-afters

Were never my style

I'm not a leading lady

Not a pin-up, top-10 girl

Not expecting my Prince Charming

Or to be swept off my feet

Missing nothing but the warmth

That is, most of the time

But oh I loved you, love you

And maybe always will
