I still see you in the off chance, you're no longer in my dreams
yet you come around to catch my tears, hear the things that I believe
when I look at you, I remember the first time I knew
I'm convinced that it was worth it, all this time spent loving you
I can't lie it hurts a little bit to see you laugh at all she says
but I'm not in a war with envy, I've put my heart to bed
and I can't help but wonder, thought I knew what God had planned
but if you're happy, then I promise, one day I'll understand
That sweet heart of yours that enters in, but never seems to leave
I hope one day you figure out the words I couldn't speak
for the good times and the bad, for the guidance I still need
Oh, I'm forever grateful, for the way that you loved me
And you told me about your parents, how they met like you and I
remember thinking that I had to have you, or I might just die
Because you're the type of man I want my son to be just like
but this emptiness reminds me that it's just not the right time
That sweet heart of yours that enters in but never seems to leave
I hope one day you figure out the words I couldn't speak
for the good times and the bad, for the guidance I still need
Oh, I'm forever grateful for the way that you loved me
And I still go to God at night, hoping you find joy in life
He says it's okay to cry, just wasn't meant to be your wife
That sweet heart of yours that enters in but never seems to leave
I hope one day you figure out the words I couldn't speak
for the good times and the bad, for the guidance I'll always need
Oh, I'm forever grateful, for the way that you loved me
