I can withstand physical pain

It's emotional pain I fear

I see it all day, everyday

Friend after friend

Break up after break up

Relationships only last a minute

Well, in my opinion

Some turn out great

Others are looked upon as being grave mistakes

I'd rather not be subjected to that

My affectionate thoughts never rise above a crush

Actions never take place

For I fear that he would make up his mind

To get up and leave at any moment

Sure I should have a more trusting heart

But would you rather stay away from this fear

If you were in my position

Or would you rather deal with the reality that is there

I will always be that one female that may have what you don't

That maybe what he's looking for

I can withstand physical pain

It's emotional pain I fear
