I am here
I gave my apologies
I tried to be better
I tried to forgive
Maybe i never got a chance
I am sorry again for being that way

But it had been too long
I wasn't getting any younger
I wasn't expecting a present for
Christmas or my birthday
Just a card or a memory to have and keep

I am sorry that i had no way of knowing if you
were still there or if you left
I am sorry for not being patient enough
To say 5 more years just for you

But someone else came
He hugged me, like you never did
He took me and protected me
Like you never did
He saw in me something you
Never saw
He was there waiting for me
And i took my chance and found in him
That i do not have to wait for someone
That someone has to wait for me
And it is up to me to not take long

I am sorry but he was more than you ever were.
