"A simple line can make you laugh... or cry."
Flying Without Wings by Westlife
"I love you, but..." & "But, I love you." are two statements that consist of the same words but have two very different meanings.
See, if your special someone tells you he loves you but it won't work, will you be happy? Well of course not. It's like he loves you, yes he does, but there's something stopping him. Maybe he loves you just as a friend or maybe he wants to save the friendship. You would never know, unless he tells you. Generally, this statement would make you cry.
If your special someone tells you ...but, he loves you, then you're a lucky girl. What he wants to tell is that even though you're this one or that one, he'll love you no matter what. In short, he accepts you. Smile, he loves you.
When words in a statement are rearranged, it will form another statement with another meaning. Worse is that the meaning could be the opposite of the meaning of the original arrangement of the statement. Who would've expect, two statements that consist of the same words could either make you laugh or cry. Well, you better watch your statements, specifically the arrangement of words. ;)
