As I sit beneath this tree,
I remember the last time I saw you,
You seemed so lonely,
As you asked the question,
The question runs through my mind,
And yet I have no answer,
A simple yes or no should do it,
Well that’s what you told me,
And yet yes or no,
Both seem so wrong,
So how should I answer?
Should I pretend you never asked?
Suggest we just be friends?
Sometimes I just wish you'd never asked,
Because eventually whatever answer I give,
Will destroy our relationship,
In my heart I know I can’t say yes,
Because forever seems so final,
Did I ever pretend you meant more to me,
Then what I said you did?
Is this somehow my fault?
Or did you see more then what was there?

Ouch!

Talk about relationship disconnect!

'We can just be friends,' will devastate.
