| I always pretended for your sake |
| So you wouldn't know how you made my heart break |
| I tried so hard to save you from yourself |
| But I never could cry out loud for help |
|
| All I did was help you tell a lie |
| You never even knew it when I said goodbye |
| I ran so far and I don't know why |
|
| You never even knew who I was |
| You saw about as far as a blind man does |
| I carried you with me everywhere I went |
| I carried everything till my back was bent |
|
| All I did was help you tell a lie |
| You never even knew it when I said goodbye |
| It keeps on raining and I don't know why |
|
| All our words are written down in chalk |
| Out in the rain on the sidewalk |
| If all our heartaches were in a stack |
| They'd go all the way up to heaven and back |
|
| We don't know all the trouble we're in |
| We don't know how to get home again |
| Jesus come and save us from our sin |
