When You Loved Me

You wait for me

I wait on you

If I have to 

I will tell you

The truth

But then

I'd have to leave you

You said

Let it go baby girl

Unburden your mind

Let me in

I wanted this

To end so differently

I'm running

And I'm circling

And the truth

The truth is

I'm growing cold

And tired

From this life

You gave me your hand

A second chance

I took that chance

I bled

And I cried

I bared it all

I tried

If it's all I can give

What am I supposed to do

How can I live

With this regret

With this pain

The pain

I see in your eyes

Burning bright

Scorching me alive

The fights

The endless nights

The bitter loneliness

It's never as easy

As it seems

Or like they tell you

So tell me sweetheart

What more can I do

If I can't give you

All of me

You love me

But you'll hate me

When the morning comes

You'll find this bed

Empty 

And you'll smell me

On your sheets

And you'll hate me

That I can promise

Guarantee

So please

My baby 

If you love me

If only for now

Somehow

Can you remember me

The way I was

When you loved me
