Hiding Tears From My Face
I’ve been waiting
I’ve been patient
I’ve been hoping
I’ve been praying
I asked you one day
And I’ve had to wait
I’ve let you have
Your time to think
But now I need to know the truth
Tell me your answer, so I can move on
You tell me no…
I might have expected
I say it’s alright
And pretend I don’t mind
You don’t even know
I am really screaming
I am crying out for help
I hide my tears from my face
But they are found by my heart
I have lied
For your sake
It’s not your fault
You don’t like me
I guess I just wasn’t
Good enough for you
And now I have to deal
With all of this pain
I try desperately to repair
This hole in my heart
But everyday I see you
A new wound is revealed
And the hole just gets bigger;
Maybe one day I will find the guy
To fill up my hole with love
And repair the damage
That you caused
And you didn’t even know
