LUCKY ME

How I long to hold her,

Feel her head on my shoulder.

But even though we are apart,

She's on my mind and in my heart.

God, how I need her so much.

Need to feel her touch.

Need to know that she is there.

Need to know that she cares.

Yet I push her away,

With the words that I say.

And the things that I do.

How I feel so blue.

Now I'm banging my head,

Against a wall.

To prove I am wrong.

Banging my head,

Against the wall,

To prove I am strong.

I'm so lucky, lucky me.

Lucky that she puts up with me.

Lucky that she sees the good within.

Lucky that she sees the sinner,

And not the sin.
