I thought I’d never give up
But this is really getting old
Waiting while you wander
Crying when you don’t come home
Wishing you’d love me more
Wanting to be kissed on the head
Hearing excuses pushed away
Hoping you’d be the prayer of my pain
Needing you to cradle me to sleep
Craving to hear your voice
Saying I’d be okay when I’m not
Holding me tight when I fail
Being my light when life’s dark
Not being the coward you are
I thought I’d never give up
But this is really getting old!
