The Lie
It took me too long to make it here
I got distracted a couple of years
I'm sure you waited as long as you could
Probably longer than you even thought you should
I'm finally where I should have been
When you were still believing in me
Imagine where I could have been
Imagine where I'd be
I came home when I got tired
I finally smothered out my fire
But, I walked in to an empty house
And all my clothes were laying out
I prayed that God would tell you
That I had finally changed, this time
He told me that he never would
Cause, he couldn't tell a lie
I thought of you again, this week
You came to see me in my sleep
I don't know why you still come by
But, that's okay. Cause, I don't mind
You told me that you love me
And you were coming home to stay
But, then you disappeared
When I reached out to touch your face
It took me too long to make it here
I got distracted a couple of years
I got distracted a couple of years
I'm sure you waited as long as you could
Probably longer than you even thought you should
I'm finally where I should have been
When you were still believing in me
Imagine where I could have been
Imagine where I'd be
I came home when I got tired
I finally smothered out my fire
But, I walked in to an empty house
And all my clothes were laying out
I prayed that God would tell you
That I had finally changed, this time
He told me that he never would
Cause, he couldn't tell a lie
I thought of you again, this week
You came to see me in my sleep
I don't know why you still come by
But, that's okay. Cause, I don't mind
You told me that you love me
And you were coming home to stay
But, then you disappeared
When I reached out to touch your face
It took me too long to make it here
I got distracted a couple of years
