One Week

you have one week to get ahold of me
one week before i forget all about you
today is the anniversary of our first date
and a week from now i'll be letting you go
not because i want to
but beacause there is no hope of us being together

we could've worked out
perhaps if we had worked harder
or if we hadn't broken up all the time

but i know that you'll be the only one
the only one who would walk six and a half hours to see me
the only one who can tell by the look in my eyes
exactly what i was thinking
the only one who can read me like a book

last new years i started it off
with a toast to you
even though you weren't there
"here's to another year of heartbreak"
this year i'm starting anew

so you have one week
one week left before i act like i don't know you
act like i don't love you anymore
& it's going to be hard because i still do

one week for you not to call me
because i know you won't
one week until everything we've ever been to eachother is over

one week and you'll just be a memory to me
