Forgot To Love You

I sat and listened to you sing to me
I've fallen in love with you two times before
Don't know if my heart could take any more
Falling again, it might not ever
Waken again.
I'm so sorry, I forgot to love you
I'm so sorry, for so much now
I'm all alone & I've closed up my heart
How could anyone break thru
I just wanna love you
And be loved by you.

I hear the words that your heart sings
And I put a wall on my heart
Can't let anything break it apart
For fear that if broken
My heart won't mend.
I'm so sorry, I forgot to love you
I'm so sorry, for so much now
I'm all alone & I've closed up my heart
How could anyone break thru
I just wanna love you
And be loved by you.

We talked about it the other night
Finally, we talked after three long years
I don't know if it did much, I fear
Cause we've just taken time
My heart's spent.
I'm so sorry, I forgot to love you
I'm so sorry, for so much now
I'm all alone & I've closed up my heart
How could anyone break thru
I just wanna love you
And be loved by you.

I watched you last night as you sang
On a barstool in the Cafe, and I hoped to get out
Without someone seeing me cry as you sang about
Kissing a boy who I knew
Would never be me.
And I'm sorry, I forgot to love you
But you forgot to love me too
Now I'm alone, wishing you were here
To sing to me the whole night thru
I just wanna love you

And be loved by you.
And I'm sorry, I'll write you a letter
Knowing that I will never
Be enough for you.

This song was written about one of my dearest friends. She and I have been friends for over three years, and I've fallen in love with her. We've hung out all the times sometimes and I've felt like we compliment each other so well, not verbally but relationally... you know what I mean. I love that she is so in love with her family. I love to hear her sing from her heart. I love hearing what the Lord is doing in her life and how he is challenging her. There are so many things about her that I love, but one of the things that I love the most is making her laugh. She is the most beautiful girl that I know, and most of you beauty is in her heart... that doesn't mean that she's not beautiful, because she is. I want to write her a letter saying that I know that I will never be what she thinks she needs, and we can just move on in our friendship. Not to say that I don't wish that she looked on me with as loving eyes as I look on her, but such is life... you can't make someone love you.
