Feel Your Pain
February 28, 2021
I'm going to miss you child
And all the dreams you weave
That in the end
our fate has rendered make believe
I'm leaving without choice.
And without a voice
But son if it were all up to me
We'd have that sandwich shop at the end of the block on our street of dreams
Life's not fair, how I hate what you're doing to me.
Were all the plans we made in vain?
I don't care, you're not going to leave.
Son, I wish that were true
I feel your pain.
I'm not your knight in shining armor
After all it seems
Behind this face of stone a storm is raging.
I left you with no choice and without a voice
But girl if it were all up to me
We'd have the version of our future that we wanted to see.
Chorus
Life's not fair, this is killing me.
Were all the plans we made in vain?
I don't care, pretend I'm not going to leave.
Girl, I wish that were true....
I feel your pain.
I picture a life with a son and a daughter
A ball and glove and a joke on my tongue
A warm summer day with our lines in the water
And now it's become just the words from a song unsung.
From the tip of my tongue....
Through the tips of my fingers....
Oh, how the memory lingers...
