♫ restless heart - when she cries (adapted)

this is for a man in my heart that lives a long way away, southwest of me. a place where the sun sets on a lonely heart.

The road I have traveled long is paved with good intentions
It’s littered with broken dreams that never quite came true
When all of my hopes were dying
His love kept me trying
He does his best to hide the pain that he’s been through

When he cries at night
And he doesn't think that I can hear him
He tries to hide all the fear he feels inside
So I pray this time I can be the man that he deserves
Cause I die a little each time when he cries

He’s always been there for me whenever I’ve fallen
But nobody else believes he’ll be there my side
I don’t know how he takes it
Just once I’d like to make it
Then there’ll be tears of joy that fill his loving eyes

When he cries at night
And he doesn’t think that I can hear him
He tries to hide all the fear he feels inside
So I pray this time I can be the man that he deserves
Cause I die a little each time when he cries

So I pray this time I can be the man that he deserves
Cause I die a little each time when he cries
