I know that everyone says,
If you love him, let him go,
If it was meant to be, he'll return,
And if he doesn't, then you'll know.
And I remember the times he told me,
To go, he didn't need a girl there,
Believe me, I would if I could,
But I just can't help but care.
I've tried time and time again,
To let go of him, and live,
But everytime I seem to get closer,
I look back and there's that "if",
What if I make myself stop loving him?
And then he decides he wants to come back?
I guess that's something I shouldn't think of,
But I can't keep myself on the right track.
Without holding onto him, i fear,
Life will never been the same,
On the other hand, change is good,
And I can't spend life being afraid.
So I've reached this final conclusion,
Made this one last decision,
It's really all there is left to do,
I'm giving up on loving him.
