Trouble Is

be prepared

I know what`s coming next

if she`s entertaining doubts I guess that you know what is best

so I should

be prepared

to make due with what is left

and if I can`t prepare myself at least I know what to expect

my mind`s made up about her

I couldn`t live without her

so many times

so many times

I should have thanked god that I have her

and when I`m back home

safe in her arms

don`t knock on her door

don`t pick up your phone

if she`s entertaining doubts how do I explain

a grain of salt for her to take with the things that you say

despite the distance give me trust

and I will bring it home to you

give me till nothing`s left but patience and I will bring it home to you

she only wants to spare you and I the time

we so faithfully invested

she throw it in our faces

you`ve been taken advantage of

is that all I`m capable of ?

if it`s just bitterness don`t let it blind her
