Dear Andrea

dear andrea,
I wrote this song to tell you.
how you changed my life
even though your out of it by now
you taught me all
i know about love.
and for that id like to thank you
even though we didn't make it through.
ive cried my heart
out over this about 12 times.
i am not afraid
to admit my pain in anyway
I'm not like you
i don't need to pretend to get past you
and that's your game
and its not the one im willing to play.

dear andrea,
it saddens me everyday to think of you
you feel it too
if not i guess i meant nothing to you
and i know that you
will probably move on to something new
thats alright with me
cuz at one point i know you will think of me.
and all the times,
you know i would of died for you
and all the nights,
when you were scared and i held you
you stayed in the living room
and every night i would come and check on you
to make sure you were ok
for minutes i would just lay with you
and watch you sleeping
it was the greatest feeling of all
knowing when you'd wake up
within seconds you would come jump on me
and ask if im awake
even though you knew i was fast asleep
you just wanted to see me
and i was happy cuz i wanted to see you too
so look around your room
and see our names on everything
that i got for you
pillows and blankets, the scrapbook i made for you.
flip through the pages
and try to replace those feelings
good luck with that
i doubt anything can could ever top them
and im not boasting
i am just speaking true feelings
inside your head
your scared to death because you know its true.

ill always love you
i know you'll always love me too
somewhere inside you
a piece of me will always remain
we were each others
first love and thats too hard to erase
so i guess i'll see you
in passing on a random day
we'll have a moment
and continue on our way

but we will both know
the love we once had was so true
so till that day comes
ill be stuck writing these songs to you
i hope you hear them
and one day we both will get through
and you will realize
you made the biggest mistake of your life
your life (how is it without me?)
your life (how is it without me?)
your life (how is it without me?)

so, goodbye. (x8)

goodbye (x5)
(i just want you to know, you just lost someone who'd do anything for you)
(i hope you know, you just lost someone who'd do anything for you)
for you (x3)

Until next time, this goodbye (x9)
(and andrea
i hope you remember the things i said to you
and andrea
you're better then this we both know its true
and andrea
trust yourself please dont let the world control you
and andrea
you're better then this we both know that its true)
