Tell Myself
I sit here and tell myself
I'm glad you went away
As my tears blur the words
on the page in front of me
I try not to think about
why I didn't ask you to stay
Was it just my pride
getting in the way again
Or did I know that
you didn't want me anymore
I can't pretend to know
what goes on in your mind
Why you felt the need to
leave me behind
All I know is
I want you to come home
My heart breaks more
With each passing hour
My whole being screams out for you
But still I tell myself
that Im glad you went away
With each passing day
I miss you more
I long to hear your voice
and to feel you next to me
The tears continue to stain the page
I know I should move on
But I still want you back
I sit here and tell myself
I'm glad you went away
As my tears blur the words
on the page in front of me
I try not to think about
why I didn't ask you to stay
Was it just my pride
getting in the way again
Or did I know that
you didn't want me anymore
I can't pretend to know
what goes on in your mind
Why you felt the need to
leave me behind
All I know is
I want you to come home
My heart breaks more
With each passing hour
My whole being screams out for you
But still I tell myself
that Im glad you went away
With each passing day
I miss you more
I long to hear your voice
and to feel you next to me
The tears continue to stain the page
I know I should move on
But I still want you back
