Please Pardon Yourself

As I turn my head to your side of the bed
 While you wake, what's on your mind?
 To this awful news try not to hold on
 The day will come, the sun will rise and we'll be fine
 As long as I feel, as strong as I feel
 I will carry you as long as I can
 As hard on yourself, please pardon yourself
 Do the best you can and that won't go unseen
 How do I know when it's time to stop?
 Runnin' from the things I do, being things I'm not
 Oh, I have tried, I have tried to change my mind
 Every night befalls every morning light
 So how do I know that you will never stop?
 Knowin' me and trustin' me and lovin' me a lot
 Oh, I have tried, I have tried to change my mind
 Every night befalls every morning light
 Well, there's only so many ways
 You can give your loving to me
 But I'd give my soul for just for one of them now
 I'd give up the drinking, just tell me how
 'Cause it's hard
 And there's only so many years
 But I'm gonna waste my love on you
 'Cause I spent the last one just hidden away
 Screaming my lungs out with nothing to say, yeah
 As I turn my head to your side of the bed
 While you wake, what's on your mind?
 To this awful news try not to hold on
 The day will come, the sun will rise and we'll be fine
