I let you go. You let me go. We keep playing these games. I wanna spend the rest of my life with you, you wanna grow old with me. So why are we running circles around each other? It was simple when we first started and love was all that mattered. When we would've done anything to be able to spend an extra moment together alone. It was pure and sweet. That first love. That love that gave us butterflies at the anticipation of seeing each other. When the greatest joy of our day was sitting on the phone and just hearing each others voice. When we would fantasize of a time when we'd be old enough to do whatever we wanted so we could see each other whenever we wanted. Now we fuss and fight so much, we're lucky to spend one weekend a month, in peace, together. Wasting time on arguments we don't even remember. Mad for weeks for no reason except not wanting to be the first to return to the other. What changed between us? We got a little older and a little wiser, but the love is still the same. So why are things so strained? What are we fighting against? What we put each other through makes no sense at all!! You show me a little love, I show you love back. Then you push me, I push back and then we both get mad and run in opposite directions. But what is the point if all roads lead us back together? Why run away from each other? Why not have the courage to sit and figure it out? Things could be so much easier if we would just let it. Maybe its just me. Maybe I'm just a fool for love. But my days of playing the fool are coming to an end. Hearts are only meant to take so much. And since all the strain is always on my heart alone, its taken on as much as it can bear. So until we are ready to figure things out, I'll end the games here. I won't push you away, you won't push me away. I'll just go my way, and you'll go yours. And since all roads lead us back together, I'll see you down the road when the time is right.
