The road I have traveled on
 Is paved with good intentions
 It's littered with broken dreams
 That never quite came [bad word] 
 When all of my hopes were dying
 Her love kept me trying
 She does her best to hide
 The pain that she's been through

 [bad word] 
 When she cries at night
 And she doesn't think that I can hear her
 She tries to hide
 All the fear she feels inside
 So I pray this time
 I can be the man that she deserves
 'Cause I die a little each time
 When she cries

 She's always been there for me
 Whenever I've fallen
 When nobody else believes
 She'll be there by my side

 I don't know how she takes it
 Just once I'd like to make it
 Then there'll be tears of joy
 That fill her loving eyes

 [bad word] 

 So I pray this time
 I can be the man that she deserves
 'Cause I die a little each time
 When she cries
