even so

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
