One and Only

I'm waiting in the dark for your call.
Am I foolish for even waiting at all?
You've done things that I can't forget.
And I've comforted myself to many times as I've wept.
I've wondered why it's so hard for you to remain true,
When you have all this love inside of you.
I've thought of why you had to go and sleep with another.
We switch places, now I'm supposed to be your lover?
I am struggling to let you go,
All the while my heart is telling me no.
I ache because of how you've hurt me.
You left me when I'm down.
I have your children, and that's all from you.
Seems like I'm always chasing you around
I'm hurting so deeply, but no one ever see me frown.
But you see the truth in my eyes that's trying not to be found.
So why do you choose to hurt me so?
Will you abuse me until I can't take anymore?
If I let you, I'm sure you will.
Because you don't think with your heart and we're climbing different hills.
It hurts to know we're separating, subduing to the worlds myth.
That we couldn't keep such a powerful love together,
And we'd end up just like this.
Our hearts are apart and growing in distance.
But I can still feel you, as if we're fenced in.
I still hope to end tonight with your kisses.
But I know those are just my wishes.
God couldn't be God if he'd always give in every time he had a good listen.
This I know, pain is for the living.
And our lives need more forgiveness.
How about it?
You know I crave you like vodka with alcoholics.
You're my number one flavor.
Guess I'm just trying to savor,
All of you that I can.
Life has taught me to be wise.
Loving you opened my eyes.
I watch my own back now, and it feels so damn lonely,
Now that I've lost my one and only
