I Can't Believe

I Can't Believe


After all that you have done,
I can’t believe that you could care.

It’s not that I don’t want it,
I want nothing else.
And it seems that this relationship
Is the one making you jealous.
Three years I spent, fighting for you,
Being ignored, and wishing you would care.
So forgive me if it’s hard to believe
That you were there
All along.

It’s all that I could wish for,
It would be a dream come true.
But baby, I just can’t believe it
After all you’ve put me through.
You could have had me at your slightest word,
Which you know full well.
So if you loved me all this time,
Why would you never tell?

It doesn’t make any sense.
Which leaves me with only one choice.
After all of your denial, I have to ask myself why
I was almost tricked by a desirable, beautiful lie.

I want to believe it,
Trust me darling, I do.
I’ve tried to be with other guys,
But the only one I see is you.
But time after time
I fell and you didn’t catch me.
So forgive me if I’m less likely to believe.
I would drown in sadness until you cared,
But you’re fine with watching me suffer.

It’s all that I could wish for,
It would be a dream come true.
But baby, I just can’t believe it
After all you’ve put me through.
You could have had me at your slightest word,
Which you know full well.
So if you loved me all this time,
Why would you never tell?

It doesn’t make any sense.
Which leaves me with only one choice.
After all of your denial, I have to ask myself why
I was almost tricked by a desirable, beautiful lie.


Forgive me for liking you too much,
And I’ll forgive you for not liking me enough.
Forgive me for the way I notice you,
And I’ll forgive you for never noticing me.
Forgive me for being weak,
And I’ll forgive you for taking advantage of it.
Forgive me for not being able to let go,
And I’ll forgive you for never holding on.

It’s all that I could wish for,
It would be a dream come true.
But baby, I just can’t believe it
After all you’ve put me through.
You could have had me at your slightest word,
Which you know full well.
So if you loved me all this time,
Why would you never tell?

It doesn’t make any sense,
Which leaves me with only one choice.
After all of your denial, I have to ask myself why
I was almost tricked by a desirable, beautiful lie.

After all that you have done,
I wish I could believe that you care.
