Lyrics
I don’t wanna be the one to
Say I’m gonna miss ya but I will, I will
I don’t wanna say I’m gonna
Cry my eyes out baby but I will, I will
I’m not ashamed for you to
Know how much I really
Love you so cause it was such a thrill
And just remember when your gone they’ll be
That someone sad who loves you still
You will look at him and see
Me smiling back at you
I know you will you will
You will find yourself repeating things
We used to do i just know you will, you will
Don’t wonder if you wanna come
Back just come running
Home to me and let me feel the thrill
Cause I’m the one that told you I would
Love you dear forever and I will, i will
I will
