Maybe I Deserve

~ Perhaps this is my punishment
For a past fall of hurt
Misunderstandings and early warning signs
If only I could rewind the clock
Back to a better time ~

I wonder if you ever think about me
From day to day and night by night
Is it that I'm out of your mind?
So I'm definitely out of your sight

I still remember the blissful times
How happy we once was
Then year's later feeling's changed
Wondering what was the cause?

Me, you, or both of us?
Time is supposed to heal
Well if that is the case
Why do I still feel?

Maybe I deserve
For you to find somebody else
While I write letters to our daughter
That I place in a box stored on the shelf
Maybe I deserve

To be here all on my own
Waiting for the ring of my mobile phone
Waiting for the three little words
Spoken softly yet to let me know
That I'm no longer alone

Then I think of how much hurt
You put me through
You never listened or wanted to understand
I guess our rose never really grew
Never saw the sun in its full bloom

I was a strong and passionate man
Yet you were full of insecurities
Never once did I cheat on you
Despite whispers on the vine
Baby you completed me

Maybe I deserve
For you to find somebody else
While I write letters to our daughter
That I place in a box stored on the shelf
Maybe I deserve

I trusted you
Would've done anything for you
Yet after all those years
You left me in tears

Three months towards the end
Love wasn't in your heart
Maybe I deserved to be lied to
Even though when you told me
It tore my world apart

If I hurt you I'm truly sorry
No matter what we went through
I was still there committed
With an engagement ring on my finger
That's how much I loved you

Maybe I deserve
For you to find somebody else
While I write letters to our daughter
That I place in a box stored on the shelf
Maybe I deserve
