Being Whole

If I forgave you again
If I promised to be friends
Would you look me in the eye
And say "Darling, I wish I could cry"

If I told you I was strong
If I laughed and played along
Would you write me a song
And say "Darling, you're not the only one"

'Cause I'm having a hard time holding on
Feels like it won't be long 'till I'm gone
So give me back the parts you stole
And we'll both go on
Being whole

If I said I loved you again
Would you try and just give in
Forget the words we never meant
Love the times we never spent

'Cause I'm having a hard time holding on
Feels like it won't be long 'till I'm gone
So give me back the parts you stole
And we'll both go on
Being whole

And it might be a while
But I promise I'll be less a child
A home of my own and a roof above my head
And you to warm my bed

If I forgave you again
If I had always been your friend
Would you look me in the eye
And say "Darling, I hate to say goodbye"
