I sit here
alone in the dark
silent tears
slowly running
...
I don't want you with anyone else
I never have and never will
I know I am not who you really want
Or who you need or deserve
...
I have been told
I am like Superman
I have been called
A hero by some
...
You are the most beautiful woman
Under God's sky
You don't know how long
I've wanted to tell you
...
I have only 60 seconds to explain
How much you have mean to me
How much I have grown as a person
And how much I have grown as a man
...
You called me a disappointment
You said I was acting like a victim
You chose to not hear what I was trying to say
You said there were words behind my words
...
Promise me that you will be mine
that I can leave these cold and lonely nights behind.
That this empty bed won't feel quite so empty anymore.
That this room will hear the sounds of love, and laughter, again.
...
The sky as blue as your eyes
Has now lost its color
And the sun, as yellow as your hair
Has now turned to gray
...
Awash in emotion
Not knowing
Which way to turn
Happiness, surprise, loneliness
...
