I got your letter today
I knew it was coming
the moment you went away
when you mentioned him my heart froze
do not ask me to be happy
do not expect me to smile
my heart is crying
for what could have been
but never was
I know you just met
and you think you are just friends
you will say there is nothing there
just give it time
do not ask me to be happy
do not expect me to smile
my heart is crying
for what could have been
but never was
I saw it when you left
I wanted to hold onto you
I could not stand in your way
you never were mine to hold
do not ask me to be happy
do not expect me to smile
my heart is crying
for what could have been
but never was
you touched a part of me
that i had thought was dead
but now that I am losing you
I wish it had remained buried
do not ask me to be happy
do not expect me to smile
my heart is crying
for what could have been
but never was
I should be happy for you
but the thought of
not being loved by you
is tearing me apart
do not ask me to be happy
do not expect me to smile
my heart is crying
for what could have been
but never was
