i forgot to tell you...

i must have forgotten to tell you,
i know i forgot to show it,
how could i have been so selfish?

my eyes were so blind
to your love and your care,
but my heart knew it all,
if only the right words were there...

some say it wasn't my fault
and i'm not the one to blame,
but i know they are wrong,
because now i feel so much pain...

i didn't know what you wanted
although you gave me the greatest hint
why didn't i listen to you
when you talked about commitment...

you always told me you loved me,
but i didn't always say it back.
i wasn't expecting to hear it
i didn't know how to react...

many people have said those words to me
like they meant nothing,
but i remembered what you told me
you'd never say it unless it did mean something...

i think that's why it scared me
because i knew it was real,
but after you say it,
i didn't know to feel...

i knew i felt the same,
but it was just to hard for me to do.
what i forgot to tell you...
" i do love you! "
