My Guilty Heart
I didn’t wait forever
To have you by side
Maybe I was foolish
Because I have my pride
I wanted so to please you
And keep you for my own
But here I sit just writing
Feeling quite alone
He stands by me through everything
No matter big or small
My heart continues to love you
And hurts him through it all
He didn’t ever really leave
And now that you are gone
He's the one that helps me
To get up and move on
I beg for his forgiveness
Each and every day
He knows that I love him
But what more am I to say
He knows I still miss you
And I know what he asks
He wonders if after all
I’ll really work to make us last
So now I sit here waiting
For answers I can’t find
Because my guilty heart
Haunts me all the time
