I suppose that I was too hopeful
Being a dreamer does that to you
I'd see all of these happy children with their fathers
With each second, my heart would die a little more
Maybe I hoped that one day you'd appear
Show up at my door and apologize
"I'm sorry for all of the wasted years." you'd say
But that moment never came
The days continue to pass and the clock still ticks
Autumn leaves dissipate into the Winter snow
And I think
Think about you and who you are
Where you are
And what you've been up to all of these years
And I wonder
Wonder why you never came back for me
Was I not good enough?
All I wanted was your love
As the rain taps on the roof of this car
I watch it drip off of the chrome
And as Springsteen plays faintly in the background, I think of you
Why didn't you love me?
Was I...AM I not love able?
Life teaches
It teaches in grace and in responsibility
Sometimes
Love is
Just not
Enough
