You can push me away,
Go ahead and turn your back.
You ignore me every day,
It doesn't have to be like that.
I'm annoying; I understand I'm not great,
You've known that since the start.
But I'll make this line straight;
You've always held my heart.
So no matter what word you speak,
I'm still going to attempt to grab your attention every day of the week.
'Cause I won't give up on you,
We both know that's what I won't do.
I've spent years just trying to be your friend,
I'd rather die than permit this to be the end.
You'll never admit we had a fling,
That's okay, but you have to admit we have something.
So don't go, don't be in shock,
All along, you knew my feelings would never stop.
I acknowledge you'll never feel the same,
Though I'm hoping one day that will change...
You say it's unrealistic,
That we'd end up together.
The world isn't made in plastic,
So you're going to have to be a bit more clever.
You deny the possibility of liking me,
But I see it in your Christian green eyes.
I'll pray at night and hope to believe,
True feelings for me you'll soon realize.
It's only a matter of time,
Sooner or later, I'll make you mine.
'Cause I won't give up on you,
We both know that's what I won't do.
I've spent years just trying to be your friend,
I'd rather die than permit this to be the end.
You'll never admit we had a fling,
That's okay, but you have to admit we have something.
So don't go, don't be in shock,
All along, you knew my feelings would never stop.
I acknowledge you'll never feel the same,
Though I'm hoping one day that will change...
Told me you would never make a relationship publicly open,
Think you could revise that inside your head again?
You know when I flirt and you know when it's hardcore,
It's killing me to know I can't do anymore.
Because your feelings just aren't the same,
I respect them even if it causes me pain.
I'll remind you that until you find that special guy that takes your breath away,
I won't disappear, I'm here to stay...
'Cause I won't give up on you,
We both know that's what I won't do.
I've spent years just trying to be your friend,
I'd rather die than permit this to be the end.
You'll never admit we had a fling,
That's okay, but you have to admit we have something.
So don't go, don't be in shock,
All along, you knew my feelings would never stop.
I acknowledge you'll never feel the same,
Though I'm hoping one day that will change.
It could change...

Having those firm emotions for an old love or crush that won't relinquish from your mind or heart? I know I do. So, I composed this song to let her know that.
