The Man I Thought You Were-Gail Carson

I was a burden, I was a chore

It was clear to me, you didn't love me anymore

The more i begged, the more you pushed me away

In the end, I knew I couldn't stay

(Chorus)

You made me feel, like I was hard to love

That I was not worthy, that I was not enough

I lost myself, just to keep you near

Through years of your silence, through years of my tears

you were my forever, and ever I thought for sure

now I miss, the man I thought you were

now I miss, the man, I thought you were

I gave you my love, I gave you my heart

I gave you children, still it all fell apart

I stayed too long, didn't want to quit

I thought I could love you, through all of it

(Chorus)

You made me feel, like I was hard to love

That I was not worthy, that I was not enough

I lost myself, just to keep you near

Through years of your silence, through years of my tears

you were my forever, and ever I thought for sure

now I miss, the man I thought you were

now I miss the man,

I wished,

you were
