Unrequited Love (Dial Tone)

You have been hurt too many times before, and I don't want you to cry anymore
You have eyes that are to precious to have tears fall from them
My mind is made up, I will make you the happiest that you've ever been before
Dial Tone
No matter what I say you'll never hear it
You'll never take it truly to heart, because you still have pieces missing
I have known you for too long so it should be clear
That I am not like the rest.
Unrequited Love
I could give up my life long dream just to be with you
My parents could call me crazy, that it's a stupid thing to do
But I am just a "good friend" or a "little brother" to you
The pain in my heart is too much for a man to go through
So all I can do is sit back and watch
As the next man makes promises that are not true.
But even through it all
Im Here.
