I've been afraid

I've been away too long

Every city whispering your name

Won't ask you to wait

But darling when I get home

I'm hoping that you might

still feel the same

But if you go

I think I'd understand

It's not that easy holding my hand

But you should know

That I miss you all the time

And I wish that I could tell you

That we'll be all right

But I can't be where you are tonight

I only dream beautiful things about you

So waking up always seems to hurt

And I hate goodbyes

But baby I'll try to make them work

If you choose to break

my heart when I return

But if you go

I think I'd understand

It's not that easy holding my hand

But you should know

That I miss you all the time

And I wish that I could tell you

That we'll be all right

But I can't be where you are tonight

I can't be where you are

If you go

I think I'd understand

It's not that easy holding my hand

But you should know

That I miss you all the time

And I wish that I could tell you

But I can't be where you are
