Reality

So the story goes on down the less traveled road
It's a variation on the one I was told
And although it's not the same, it's awful close

In an ordinary fairytale land
There's a promise of a perfect happy end
And I imagine heaven just sort of that, it's better than nothing

So you'll be mine forever and almost always
And I'll be fine, just love me when you can
And I'll wait patiently, I'll wake up every day just hoping that you still care

In the corner of my mind I know too well
That surely even I deserve the best
But instead of leaving I just put the issue to bed and out of my head

And just when I believe you've changed for good
Well you go and prove me wrong just like I knew you would
When I've run out of second chances you give me that look, and you're off the hook

Because you're mine forever and almost always
Well I'm fine, just love me when you can
And I'll wait patiently, I'll wake up everyday just hoping that you still care

What am I still doing here
It's all becoming so clear

You'll be mine forever and almost always
It ain't right, to just love me when you can
I won't wait patiently, or wake up everyday just hoping that you'll still care

Forever and almost always
No it ain't right, to just love me when you can baby
Ain't gonna wait patiently, I won't wake up everyday just hoping that you'll still care
