At night I sat and wonder
Just how some things can be?
And I try to understand
Everything I see.
Each night my pillow
Is wet with lonely tears,
And I say to myself, do
He understand what I feel?
When I struggle through life,
I could never feel
That you care.
The days that I hurt inside
You were never there.
I push my way
Through heart ache,
Sadness, and pain,
When I needed you the most;
You left me standing
In the rain.
Cold and lonely nights
I snuggle in bed
While visions of you
Flash through my head.
Did you see it in my eyes,
And did you even care?
When I needed you
The most, you
Were never there.
I gave you a family
I made the perfect wife,
I prayed hard for you
Each and every night.
I struggle with this pain,
In my own selfish way
And I dreamed every night
That you would
Somehow stay;
Now the time has come
That I have to let go,
It’s killing me inside,
More than you will ever know.
When I look at your picture
I can’t help but stare
The answer is plain and clear;
You were never there.
