I Didn't Want To Tell You

I Didn't Want To Tell You
R jamison F

*rough draft / R&R / let me know what you think*

I never wanted you to know
I was fine keeping it inside
You were happy with him
But you can read me too well
I tell you you're better off
Leaving this one alone
Just let me deal, I'll be okay
You worry about all day

I get on AOLIM
You ask me if I promise
I promise for you
You ask me what is wrong with me
I promised to answer your question
Not knowing what it was
I could never lie to you
The truth is I love you

I didn't want to tell you
I didn't want to hurt our friendship
I didn't want to hurt you
I didn't want to hurt him

Now you are apologizing
Saying you never meant to hurt me
Even he is saying he knows what it is like
To love and not be able to hold
This just makes everything that much harder
I didn't want to rock the boat
I didn't want to make this a big deal
I didn't want him to know
I just wanted our friendship to stay the same

I didn't want to tell you
I didn't want to hurt our friendship
I didn't want to hurt you
I didn't want to hurt him

I knew from the beginning
You were happy with him
I knew from the beginning
You want to make things work with him
So I kept my love for you inside
I was happy on the sidelines
To protect you , to make you smile when you were sad
But I promised I answer your question
I should have lied

I didn't want to tell you
I didn't want to hurt our friendship
I didn't want to hurt you
I didn't want to hurt him

I didn't want to tell you
I didn't want to hurt our friendship
I didn't want to hurt you
I didn't want to hurt him

I didn't want to tell you
