sure is lonely 'round here ever since you gave up
i know i don't have the right to go and call you up
i just don't know why you don't even want to know me now
what does it take to win your approval?
i know that how i acted wasn't how you wanted me to be
it just that i tried so hard to get your attention
i only did what i only knew back then
and i know that you try and that i just don't understand
could i still make amends, or is it too late for that?
and sometimes i'd go back there just to remember how you were
so real to me back then
and wonder how you are now
but then now i realise how shallow our friendship really was
i guess only you could see that though, since you were on the receiving end
Song 12: Be A Good Boy
when i look back now
to when we were 14
you had tried so hard back then
i wish that i could have seen that
and when i look at now
we've grown so far apart
trying to hold on to more each day
now that i know how easy it is to lose
you were so good to me back then
wish i could have appreciated that
and don't know what i should pray for as i ought
but God will keep you well i know
Song 13: Be Good
have a nice everyday
don't forget to tell him that you're so glad that he's alive today
don't forget to make sure that forgiveness is ok
don't forget that life's not about giving up
be prepared for when it might change all over again
i sure miss having a friend to hang out with and talk to
like you
but God's always here
He's there with you too
if you ever needed me
i pray that i'll be there at that time for you
and you can always ask me to be
Song 14: Be Strong
is everything okay?
you've got to tell me
'cos you worried me
wish that you could trust me
though you say it's all too late
know that i'll still be waiting here
hoping you can trust me someday
i'm sorry for being so awful and mean to you when we were younger
i was so bitter and selfish i just couldn't do anything right
and maybe i still am now
you been so good to me and i definitely don't deserve it
it's so unfair that i made you hold on to me when you wanted to leave
i've never done anything nice for you
i don't even deserve to know you anymore
you're making such a great new start with your life
and you really do have a future that's bright
and i don't want to get in the way
so i'll just pray for you everyday
be strong in all your times of trial
in the end truth does prevail
God is tendering to all our unhappinesses somehow
it takes time but He won't let go because it was too hard
Song 15: Bear Through Longsuffering
unless someone really cares
nothing gets better
ever
you'll never know though
wish that you appreciated me now
is a life really what it takes?
'cos people don't see your pain until you're gone
and when people move on
they don't think about you anymore
used to tell me about that
used to tell me about you
how come you don't want to talk to me now?
is it because you don't like me now?
unless someone looks out for you
the joy of the Lord is my strength
doesn't mean a thing
and on this journey that i'm on
you were once so close by
but i didn't know how to win you
and i don't know what else i can do to hold on now
if you've given up on me
i can't bear through anymore
my faith is dying
if i walk this journey
not knowing whether or not you'll be there in the end waiting
because if the way you're treating me now is how you really feel
how can we be in the same Heaven
would you treat me like i'm nothing there too?
would you keep your distance and tell me you can't see me there still?
and silently i pray
please don't give up on me
are you still there?
do you have any sufferings of your own you can't bear?
