show you care (feat. Sloan Taylor)

Yes, I fell again
And I'm sorry you weren't there to brace my hand
And yes, I still love you so
But can words really fix the tear that was meant to be sewn?
Yet you still called, on your way to O'Hare
You were driving down from Madison
Your work had led you there
And we were supposed to meet for the new year
So why was I standing alone in New York
With a phone to my ear

But your broken sighs and whiskey lies
I tolerated so I could keep you
But I had sleepless nights while you took those red-eyes
I guess I knew our end was coming soon
All those planes taking off couldn't have been good for you

And I gave you things I shouldn't have
The boy really said "Wow! I didn't pressure you"
Well here's your gold star I guess
And I learned, with low self respect
You can only toast with an empty glass

But your broken sighs and whiskey lies
I tolerated so I could keep you
But I had sleepless nights while you took those red-eyes
I guess I knew our end was coming soon
All those planes taking off couldn't have been good for you

And you lived a life you knew would end soon
You never really moved in did you?
And I saw those boxes piled up in the basement too
All the while I scraped the edges of my soul for you

Because your broken sighs and whiskey lies
I tolerated so I could keep you
But I had sleepless nights while you took those red-eyes
I guess I knew our end was coming soon
All those planes taking off couldn't have been good for you

So hop a plane to wherever you want
New York won't miss you I hope I don't
And I know love doesn't just disappear
So I'll take that weekend train somewhere
And I'll write a few songs about you
And when you find love again
If you can show you care, please do
