So many years I've been there for you br Always at your beck and call br Never asking for much in return br Just a little recognition would be nice, br A little hug now and then; br br You've been generous almost to a fault br With your money, but not yourself - br Sometimes I wonder br If you even realize that I am there br And that I do have feelings; br br We're like an old married couple br Past the stage of romantic notions br Knowing each other well, br Yet not knowing each other at all - br Perhaps afraid to know....... br br That would require too much effort br Maybe even commitment, br And how awful that would be - br Not being able to change your mind br If the perfect person came along; br br I'm just as much to blame as you - br I should have run a long time ago br Before I let you get to me br With your enigmatic nature... br Always hoping for a miracle; br br And suddenly you've found yours br And just like that, I become invisible - br Oh, and by the way, you said...... br I won't be available for Sunday breakfast - br I have other plans...... br br Well, I hope your plans are worth it - br I won't be sitting here waiting br For you to come crawling back, br Expecting me to understand br When things fall apart; br br And I hope they do.
