Baby, I love you... you know...

My head spins and swims.

What am I supposed to be doing? Feeling? Thinking?
How does one deal with having their heart ripped out
still beating and bloody?

Why wouldn't I agree to anything that would turn his
mind back to me?

But alas, that is not the answer here. Things have to
work out the way they have to... and on their own,
with only effort -- NOT FORCE -- on our parts.

Sigh.

So M.W. (and you know that I still think you are wonderful)...
here's lookin' at you, kid:

"I still believe in you" by Vince Gill

Everybody wants a little piece of my time
But still I put you at the end of the line
How it breaks my heart to cause you this pain
To see the tears you cry fallin’ like rain
Give me the chance to prove
And I’ll make it up to you

I still believe in you
With a love that will always be
Standing so strong and true
Baby I still believe in you and me

Somewhere along the way,
I guess I just lost track
Only thinkin’ of myself never lookin’
back
For all the times I’ve hurt you, I apologize
I’m sorry it took so long to finally realize
Give me the chance to prove
That nothing’s worth losing you

I still believe in you
With a love that will always be
Standing so strong and true
Baby I still believe in you and me
