She bowed on my window Laid their arms in a room Prayed to them I'd set you free And tonight you could be a ghost Stumbling through the darkness So glad to be all alone Wasted hours might haunt still But she tries not to let it show You saw me on the TV Saw the life I chose Say you don't believe me And you'll be glad it's in the show Why don't you come up and see me? We could be alone Wasted hours might haunt me still But I try not to let it show But all I ask is some forgiveness I was young and I did not understand Wonder why you would live While I was sleeping Well, I know you're just trying to be the one Now, it all looks the same to me You're body's painted with ghosts There were times I felt cheated, baby But in that, I'm not alone Sure, it ain't easy Don't do me no good to know Wasted hours might haunt me still But I try not to let it show I know you're just trying to please your man
