I'm In Love With My Love

Explaining

I told myself I wouldn't cry over you
Why should I cry over you?
You were just a crush

Now my heart is trying to explain to my brain
How you broke my heart
Without saying a word

How do I explain that I was in love with you
That I wanted you to be in love with me too?

That the muscles in my heart tensed when I thought about you?
And that I dreamed of diner dinners and drive-in movie dates with you?

And tell me how to explain how you broke my heart
When we never dated, I was only a friend you took to homecoming.

When we were never a 'we'
When you wrapped your arms around h e r
When I knew you for three years, and loved you for a thousand
When she knew you for months, but only loved you for minutes

Why is my heart so sore over this?
