'Cause

Look me in the eye
prove to me you really care;
that everything wasn’t a lie;
that everything was really there.

‘Cause my heart is aching;
it’s breaking, twisting;
it’s screaming.
I just can’t take this beating.

Too long have I been strewn aside.
My feelings of pain can no longer hide.
You’ve left an empty space at my side.
Abandonment rips me apart from the inside.

‘Cause my body is aching;
I’m shaking, crying;
I’m screaming.
In this loneliness I’m dying.

But before all faded out—
before I drowned in my doubt,
someone pulled me out;
showed me what love is about.

‘Cause he felt me aching;
he watched you hurt me—
watched you desert me.
And he stole my love from you.
