I know why you hurt me,
Though I know you care,
You don't know what to do,
With the love I share.
I know why I stay here,
Though it hurts everyday,
I want you to know the peace,
Of someone who will stay.
I know why you fight me,
Though you know I am here,
Push me away before,
I hurt you and strand you there.
I know why you make me cry,
Though you know how hard I try,
Hurt me now, before
I can say goodbye.
I know why you stay,
Though you may not,
Take a small chance,
On the love you have sought.
