Fading Dreams
I hoped to one day love again
But today I am not sure about me,
I thought of myself as lucky to reach twenty-one
Yet I am not sure about twenty-three
If I will never marry or have kids
What else is there to live for?
In the end you lose all you had, standing alone
Was it all worth fighting for?
I had dreams just like you
About a house with a picket fence,
But all my dreams are fading fast
And it’s not all present tense
I sit at home and cry at night
After you have gone to work,
Asking myself if you are happy
Because sometimes you look hurt
You sometimes say you never wanted
Anyone else in your life,
So I take a step away
No chance to be a wife
I do not want you to go through it again
Cause you have seen it once before,
Now all I can ask is one question
Do you want me out the door?
Whatever it takes for you to be happy
I am willing to do,
So now that I have said my peace
I’m leaving the choice to you.
