Still love you so

How could it be so easy
For you to say goodbye?
Were all those tender promises
Nothing but a lie?

The day you turned and walked away,
My wounded soul began to bleed.
You left me standing in the wreckage
Of every shattered dream and need.

I wish I had the strength to say,
“I hate you”—then just let you go.
But the truth still burns upon my tongue:
I love you more than you’ll ever know.

I wish that love could turn to hate,
That I could close and lock the door.
But every time I swear I’m done,
My heart still reaches out for more.

How could forever disappear
With one last cold goodbye?
While I’m still here remembering us,
You never even turned to cry.

So maybe someday I’ll be strong
And finally learn to let you go.
But tonight the truth is all I have:

I love you more than you’ll ever know.
