I played around, my eye just wandered ‘round, blinded to the hurt that it would cause
You soldiered on, working for our son, it hasn’t all been a pack of lies but then

I could have done more to show you how I really feel, I’ve been waiting for a time
that’s passed me by
I never said I could promise all you ask for in your dreams, but lately I haven’t looked you in the eye.

And there’s no two ways about it I must change
I’ve been cheating you and myself all this time
I never meant for you to take on all the baggage in my head
You deserve a better life instead, yes you deserve a better life instead

You said enough, that life is just too tough, I kept the tears from rolling down my cheek
i figured out, what this life is all about, I see I have the power to be weak
'Cause counts is us and making the most of all there is to share, no I’ll never let you down again my friend
You’re my lover and my partner and I know that I am blessed, I hope that you’ll be with me to the end.


And there’s no two ways about it I must change
I’ve been cheating you and myself all this time
I never meant for you to take on all the baggageI should lose
You deserve a man who can just choose, yes you deserve a man who can just choose

The time has come, no need to hide and run, you’ve helped see the sunshine through the rain
I see the past but now I‘m looking on, I know that we can grow and find our way

'Cause there’s nothing any better than the smile upon your face, and our little boy rejoices at your name
I am standing right beside you and hope you can forgive, time can only help to heal the pain

And there’s no two ways about it I must change
I’ve been cheating you and myself all this time
I never meant for you to take on all the baggage in my head
You deserve a better life instead, yes you deserve a better life instead
