[Shawn]

You know I gave up on life
A long time ago
A good dad, a good man
Were the best that I could know
The sky grew dark, the clouds rolled in
And the sun never shone
I reached for the bottle
And my world came undone

And then by chance I found you
And my world began to rhyme
I couldn't have known then
That you were just passing time
Maybe You feel I've let you down
And Lord knows it's what I do
But I'd move heaven and hell
If only your love would have been true

{chorus}
What ever happened
To the love that was going to save me
Was a single call from you
More than you could have gave me
Were all of those words
Spoke oh so long ago
The closest thing to happiness
That I will ever know

And now life has returned
To the darkness I know so well
It looks to strangers like sadness
It feels to me like hell
The world has lost its color
And a haze has covered my eyes
This is how it feels then
When my very last hope dies

{chorus}

And this is my life now
Going days without sleep
Smiling by the daytime
but paying girls to watch me weep
I wish it would have worked out
I wish your love would have been true
My life would have been complete
I would have been with you

{chorus}
{chorus}
