Instead Of Me

Intro: verse 1 Today I read your note one last time, And made a picture in my mind Then I buried your words in the ground, For no one to be found It troubles me to see the dirt on my hands, But I think you'd understand God I miss you, God I miss you Oh I know you are thinking of me but it's just not enough You say "be patient my dear" but I need you here But instead you're lost in feelings for somebody else oh, And it hurts me you're with him now instead of me, Instead of me instead of me verse 2 Sometimes it's almost too much to bear, And it seems so unfair Every secret and every little lie, Feeds the guilt inside Now I know there is no other way, Still I long for the day When we can be as one, be as one Oh I know you are thinking of me but it's just not enough You say "be patient my dear" but I need you here But instead you're lost in feelings for somebody else oh, And it hurts me you're with him now instead of me, Instead of me instead of me Bridge Let's pretend for a moment, my dear, We could have it our way Our very own place, sipping red wine and beer, On the porch, on a summer's day Wouldn't that be great? Outro But till then you're lost in feelings for somebody else And it hurts me you're with him now instead of me, instead of me..
