You say I'm the one you've been waiting for
But how do I tell you I'm still figuring out who I am?

You promise a love that lasts forever
But how do I tell you I'm not sure I'm ready for forever?

You see a future with us side by side
But how do I tell you I need space to find my own path?

You dream of building a life together
But how do I tell you I'm still learning to stand on my own?

You believe we're meant to be
But how do I tell you I'm unsure where we fit in each other's lives?

You say I'm the love of your life
But how do I tell you I'm not sure where my heart lies?

You promise to be my rock through it all
But how do I tell you I need to find my own strength?

You envision us growing old together
But how do I tell you I'm still discovering who I want to become?

You believe we're destined to be together
But how do I tell you I'm still questioning what destiny means for us?

You assure me of a future filled with happiness
But how do I tell you I'm not sure happiness looks the same for both of us?
