Lovin' a Damaged Girl
You say you'll be there til the end
You say you can forgive where I've been
But how much do you truly understand
A damaged girl needs a strong man
There are things that go on in one's mind
Certain memories one may never leave behind
Certain wounds that may never heal
At times I won't be able to tell you how I feel
Moments may come where I force myself not to run
Do you truly see the price I pay for damages done
I feel your gentle touch and see the love in your eyes
But the baggage I carry and the road I walk
How much do you truly realize
I love you within my soul and beyond my heart
I toss and turn missin' you every moment we spend apart.
I become a giddy little school girl knowin' you'll be home
Fall into your arms knowin that never again to I have to live in this world alone
But you must take the time to understand
Lovin' a damaged girl takes a strong man
