I'm so drained of the strength I once knew. And all that's from is loving you. You tell me you have changed, you see how life should be. So what the hell are you doing to me. You turn around and pull my heart from my chest. Just when I felt my nerves could rest. I was feeling like life was finally going to go the right way. Then here we are again today. You only can change for just a while. Just long enough to see me smile. How could you do that to someone you love. Shouldn't they be the one you're thinking of. I've been so afraid to be happy in my life. But that all changed when I became your wife. Momma told me to not let my guard down. I told her it was okay I no longer had any reason to frown. I finally found someone who loved me through and through. And no matter what I'd be there for you. To this day I've stayed even when I should have said good-bye. So now it's my fault I set here and cry.
