I understand there's nothing i can do |
|
I can't be what she needs |
|
As long as she needs you |
|
If you're the one she'll turn to from now on |
|
There are things that you should know |
|
About her when i'm gone |
|
She's not as brave as she might seem |
|
and when shes had a scary dream |
|
If you dont hold her |
|
She wont sleep all night |
|
She's not as strong as she should be |
|
She cries at movies on TV |
|
And counts on you to see that things go right |
|
But shes a chance to make your dreams come true |
|
To have someone who thinks theres nothing you cant do |
|
A chance to live each day |
|
And care the way you always knew you could |
|
Take care of her for me |
|
She used to be mine |
|
Shes not her best on rainy days |
|
she'll test your love a hundred ways |
|
She plays with your emotions like a song |
|
She chases dreams that cant come true |
|
and always tries too hard for you |
|
and never knows just how to say shes wrong |
|
But shes a chance to make your life complete |
|
A chance to take those lonely days |
|
and make them sweet |
|
a chance to feel so good |
|
that everyone wish they could be you |
|
take care of her for me |
|
she used to be mine |
|
she'll never leave you anytime alone |
|
she needs more time and tenderness |
|
that anyone you've known |
|
But shes a chance you'll never have again |
|
a chance that always seems to go to other men |
|
a chance i cant forget |
|
a chance that i somehow let slip away |
|
take care of her for me |
|
she used to be mine |
