Featuring Brad Meinerding on Mandolin
lyrics
I love you, can’t you see that
You tell me you love me too
So why can’t you believe me
When I say it to you
I try, lord knows it
but are you trying too
I believe you when you say you are
and lord that scares me too
Sad tears of love have fallen
yet I still want you near
I’ll wait alone the best I can
If you can’t stand to hear me
I wish there weren’t anything
that could hurt your trust in me
and that one day you’ll choose to stay
and it won’t be out of pity
I keep fighting and so do you
but what are we fighting for
who cares who’s right now as
tears trail the floor
I'm still here because I love us
and I know that you are too
so why can’t you believe me
when I say that i love you
Broke down, losing hope again
wondering could it be
that we’re running around in circles
and swallow that as free
I’m not strong enough to tell you
every time it worries me
but if I’m just a burden on your mind
then darlin tell me and i’ll let you be
