I couldn't believe what he said as he walked out the door
he said I was wasting his time and he didn't love me anymore
I stared at the door for hours wishing he'd come home
praying that i heard him wrong
And all was fine in the world
but the door never opened
and my heart stayed shut
and moment after moment I began to lose touch
I stopped holding back the tears that were burning inside
and I let the pain embrace me
I let myself be hurt
The phone rang for hours
I never once picked it up
when I finally did I was sorry
because it was him on the other end
asking me if i was OK
did I need anything and when could he come pick up his things
I stared at the receiver in my hand and let it drop back on it's stand
