I Hold My Breath

The telephone rings The number unknown So I don’t answer I don’t want to be shown That something has happened My fears have come true You’ve done something wrong Nothing is new But the truth of it all And one day you’ll see The worry you cause Is unkind to me Changes must come And only by you If you really love me Don’t say, just do Do the right thing And think about me And remove all the worry And become what I need
