you're the rain that falls on a desert night

it’s so hard for me to remember right

I’m no good for you, you tell me

I’m no good for me

what does it take to tell the truth?

I’ve lost the strength to run to you

I sure have some nerve, you tell me

is this what I deserve?

wasted too much time, can’t come crawling back to you

I’ve run out of rope, can’t go home on hope, I know

if only for a day, if only for a day

you're the moon and stars that paint the sky

you light the way when the sunshine dies

hold you as my crutch, I need to

you don’t ask for much

I’m too scared to say, promise you will stay won’t you

do you think it’s fair? not that you would care at all

feels just like a dream, and what a nightmare it has been

there’s no waking up, you’re not there to pick me up no more

wasted too much time, can’t come crawling back to you

I’ve run out of rope, can’t go home on hope
