Well, you were waiting for me, you saw me, adored me As I wish the whole world would You would never hurt me, desert me or work me For all the things you thought you could
And you would lick the tears from my eyes when I cry How I missed you when I was gone Hurt me so to leave you, deceive you, I needed you I believed in you.
I, I never meant to let you down I wait with a stake in my heart I never meant to put you down I’m trying not to fall apart
Now all I have is riches and pictures and stitches Money could never buy what you give And though my heart is achin’ and breakin’ I’m makin’ The most of what you send my way
Now I want just to hold you, unfold you, I told you See, I am coming back for you I know we will be okay every day The sun shines a little brighter
I, I never meant to let you down I wait with a stake in my heart I never meant to put you down I’m trying not to fall apart
I never meant to let you down I wait with a stake in my heart I never meant to put you down I’m trying not to fall apart I’m trying not to fall apart
We’ll re-unite, we’ll set a light I’m pushing with all of my might
Oh, no, I never meant to let you down (I wait with a stake in my heart) I never meant to put you down (I’m trying not to fall apart) I never meant to let you down (I wait with a stake in my heart) I never meant to put you down I’m trying not to fall
