When the words of today
Can't fulfill your tomorrow
touch my cheek
bring my eyes to yours
and tell me the truth
if I am not what you expected
then you can walk away
When the hopes of today
destroy your tomorrow
take my hand
lift up your voice
and help me know
if I am not what you wanted
then you can walk away
If you find someone better
Then tell me the truth
And if this isn't it
please be honest
Because if it doesn't work for you
It wont work out for me
When the words of today
break apart your tomorrow
the ring breaks
your heart aches
tell me true
what it is you want
if I am not what you needed
then you can walk away
When the hours of today
make you dread tomorrow
embrace me
say what you need to
say it all
what is it you want
if I am not what you're holding
then you can walk away
If you find someone better
Then tell me the truth
And if this isn't it
please be honest
Because if it doesn't work for you
It wont work out for me
when the separation today
rips into your tomorrow
sit me down
let me know
what has happened
if I am not what you're seeking
then you can walk away
If you love me today
more than you can tomorrow
and it hurts
Then you are more than welcome
to tell me goodbye
if I'm not what you are holding
then you can walk away
Just know I loved you
If you leave me with
your skeletons in my closet
they're enough to keep close
a tribute to your hardness
hangs next to my dresses
But if everything I was
If everything I tried
was clouded by her
Then you are free to walk away
Just know you loved me
If you leave me with
my corsets in your dresser
you'll have them to keep close
an honor to my acceptance
always cushioning your secrets
But if everything you are
If everything we did
was shadowed by her
Then you are free to walk away
When the words of today
Can't fulfill your tomorrow
touch my cheek
bring my eyes to yours
and tell me the truth
if I am not what you expected
then you can walk away
If you found someone better
Then tell me the truth
And if this isn't it
please be honest
Because if it doesn't work for you
It wont work out for me
