People who roam never get home

I thought we'd be each other's home, 
but you decided to roam.

But it was all your blame game, 
I wish I'd known the same.

You said you looked me in the eyes-
can you tell me how many goodbyes? 
Can you see the signs in my cries? 
All wasted now, my tries.

I hope God lets you sit in this ache,
that you caused, this heart to break.

But I hope you recover in the end, 
and may you never receive the love I send.
