[Verse 1: Gardner & Ryan Miller/Gardner/Miller]
I know there is a place
A place where I belong
Not mistreated or undone
And if I find that place
I'll keep my mouth shut
Cause I won't be there alone

And if you're standing
There with me
I'll swear it's a lie
And I'll still believe it

[Chorus: Gardner/Gardner & Miller/Miller]
Cause I came
And I spoke
And you ran
And didn't even wait to hear the words
Or see the look in my eyes
Cause I bled
And you watched
And I cried myself to sleep
Came to wipe my tears away but you
Couldn't look in my eyes again
Because of the love for me
[Verse 2: Gardner & Miller/Gardner/Miller]
I understand the time
It passes so slowly
And I can hear its laughter
But there will come a time
When you will ask me
And I will join you then

And if you're standing
There with me
I'll swear it's a lie
And I'll still believe it

[Chorus: Gardner/Gardner & Miller]
Cause I came
And I spoke
And you ran
And didn't even wait to hear the words
Or see the look in my eyes
Cause I bled
And you watched
And I cried myself to sleep
Came to wipe my tears away but you
Couldn't look in my eyes again
Because of the love for me
[Outro: Gardner/Miller/Gardner & Miller]
Because of the love for me
Because of the love for me
Because of the love for me
Because of the love for me
Because of the love for me
