I hate to be, to be the one Who's given up And feels that all our hope is gone But what I thought was a miracle Just turned into the same old Problem that it was
She longs for better days She's always been afraid
It's a shame, oh it's a shame That you are throwing your whole life away It's a shame, oh it's a shame I wonder if you're ever going to change It's a shame
Ever since I can recall She has been so afraid Of you losing it all What do you want Do you even know And is it worth the pain We all have to endure
She longs for better days She's always been afraid
You left her without leaving You hit her without swinging
You took away without giving a thing Except for pain and sorrow I'm praying that tomorrow You will open up your eyes and see
