Peter I can't
Peter today we spoke
It tears me inside
I want you happy
But I can't lie
I can't let you go
I can't give you away
I know I'm being selfish
But just let me be that way
You said you saw us together
Growing old holding hands
I'm trying to believe it
But I can't make future plans
I need to let you go
To be strong and set you free
In my head it all makes sense
That one of us gets to be happy
It tears me inside
I want you happy
But I can't lie
I can't let you go
I can't give you away
I know I'm being selfish
But just let me be that way
You said you saw us together
Growing old holding hands
I'm trying to believe it
But I can't make future plans
I need to let you go
To be strong and set you free
In my head it all makes sense
That one of us gets to be happy
