I'll be a long time coming
Unless, by then
You have told me something
That shows how much you care

I've done much more
Then as a man, I should have
Why did you not do all you could have
To show how much you care?

Over and again, I wondered, was I wrong?
I keep thinking I maybe should have come along
But then there comes a time in every man's life
When he must be strong
And my time's come, so if you're gone
Then I guess I'll cry
And hold to memories of what might have been
And when I finally leave, that will show how much I care
