Lyrics for Not In That Way

And I hate to say I love you When it's so hard for me And I hate to say I want you When you make it so clear You don't want me I'd never ask you 'cause deep down I'm certain I know what you'd say You'd say I'm sorry, believe me I love you, but not in that way And I hate, to say I need you I'm so reliant I'm so dependant I'm such a fool When you're not there I find myself singing the blues Can't bear Can't face the truth You will never know that feeling You will never see through these eyes I'd never ask you 'cause deep down I'm certain I know what you'd say You'd say I'm sorry, believe me I love you, but not in that way You'd say I'm sorry, believe me, I love you But not in that way
