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
