do you know
i want you to know
i have dreamed about you every night since
you broke my heart in my half
and kept the good piece
tell me you're breaking right now too
tell me you're hurting just as much
if not more
tell me you love me still
tell me you that you're okay now
tell me you made the biggest mistake of your life
wake me up
tell me this was all a nightmare
and wrap me up in your arms
hug me tighter than you ever have before
hold me until the sun comes up
until i am convinced
it was all merely a dream,
an outrageous idea planted in my head
and that you would never cause me this much pain
that you never would make me live my greatest fear
that you would never let me sob through the lonesome nights
that you'd kiss my eyelids before they turned swollen
that you love me more than enough to stay
that it would be an utter waste to tear down this home we built
that nothing has changed
and that you'd always let me number one cheerleader on your sidelines
that we could grow together
i could still be the shoulder you lean on
you can do whatever the hell you want,
chase whatever's on your horizon
just let me be the one you come home to
even if it's only once in a while
i would wait for you
i will wait for you
even if it takes a thousand lifetimes
i love you
and when you left
you took the light in me too
because you were everything to me
if i'm to be an honest woman
you still are
