You say it's hard on you

And sometimes to much to bear

Baby I understand

And believe me I'm afraid of losing it too



I wish I was the girl

That's sits across the room in your class

Then I would watch you and count every freckle

That's across your sweet face



So many things I wanna do

But I can't be with you

So many things I wanna say

But you're too far away

So many things I wanna do

But the pain is too great

So many things I wanna say

But I guess it's too late



Life ain't always the way

You want it to be and that's okay

Cause something tells me hunn

That this is the way I have to take



So many things I wanna do

But I can't be with you

So many things I wanna say

But you're too far away

So many things I wanna do

But the pain is too great

So many things I wanna say

But I guess it's too late



I don't want to be a burden on you

I don't want you to see me like I used to be

So let's be honest about the way to proceed

For the sake of the chance of making something more beautiful

Cause sometimes baby friendships can last you a lifetime...



So many things I wanna do

But I can't be with you

So many things I wanna say

But you're too far away

So many things I wanna do

But the pain is too great

So many things I wanna say

But I guess it's too late
