You're gonna hate me when I tell you everything
You're gonna question whether you really know me at all
You will revisit every smile, and where it fit into the day

I know this is how it will play
And I try, oh I try to think of all the things
That I could do to let you know that I love


Even so


I was not looking to do you wrong
Was not looking for a change of scenery
Don't remember where, or when, or how I did

But I'm hoping you'll forgive me
And I try, oh I try to think of all the things
That I could do to let you know that I love you


Do you remember how we'd run in the summertime
Do you remember how we'd run in the summertime


Oh I try, I try so very hard
And I cry, I cry so very much

For I love you like you'll never let yourself feel again
I love you like a brother and a friend
I love you with my whole heart until it bends

I love you like a lover until the very end

But I'll always think of all the things you did

To let me know that you love me
But you're leaving


Even so
