You loved me for who I am in your honest way
There were times when I fell and I really messed up
For I knew that I let you down and disappointed you
The stories of change, are they meant to be
Let�s both take that chance and let�s recover
My days of destruction, torn and tattered
I realize that you may have a change of heart
You became the sun in my grayest day
You became my strength when I needed it most
You never backed away and left me leaning alone against the post
But you didn�t count them by adding another stone in the cup
You became firm with me and stood your ground
Not even really having to make any kind of sound
And from there the distance I noticed grew
The man I love so dear to me I am told
Is tired of the carelessness and sorry is growing old
Give it a chance sweetheart I promise you will see
For I am the one you fell in love with those days ago
Please don�t give up for it is your love I want to hold
Can we both find the flame let us discover
If you were to release me and let me go
I don�t think I could stop the tears that would flow
My heart now feels like it has been shattered
I will do the best I can and be the best I can be for you
Reach for my hand and I will reach for yours to
But my dream remains I don�t want our paths to part
And if our love is truly meant to be
You would stand close and help to guide me.
