Do you blame me for the rut we’re in?
God knows I had a wiser plan,
It was all blue skies and sunshine,
When loving you began.
If all my wishes would come true,
I’d bundle every bit of wealth and give it all to you.
Intentions alone aren’t acceptable though,
So I need to show you reasons why
You don’t want to go.
Leaving doesn’t work, sorry, I need you right here loving me.
This wounded hearts on lockdown and
You possess the only key.
Somehow, someway you’ll see me shine,
Then perhaps we’ll gain some peace of mind.
Regardless, of what ultimately you choose
I pray that you’re gentle,
If I should lose.
