Make sure you pay attn to the last verse and lyrics...the song is great and empowers me so much, hope it gets us thru the night and days when it is tough.

i been sittin' here staring
at the clock on the wall
and i been layin here praying
praying she won't call
it's just another call from home
and you'll get it and be gone
and i'll be crying
and i'll be beggin you baby
beg you not to leave
but i'll be left here waiting
with my heart on my sleeve
oh for the next time we'll be here
seems like a million years
and i think i'm dying

what do i have to do to make you see
she can't love you like me

why dont you stay
im down on my knees
im so tired of being lonely
don't i give you what you need
when she calls you will go
there is one thing you should know
we dont have to live this way
baby why dont you stay

you keep telling me baby
there will come a time
when you will leave her arms
and forever be in mine
but i don't think that's the truth
and i don't like being used
and i'm tired of waiting
it's too much pain to have to bear
to love a man you have to share

why dont you stay
im down on my knees
im so tired of being lonely
don't i give you what you need
when she calls you will go
there is one thing you should know
we dont have to live this way
baby why dont you stay

i can't take it any longer
but my will is getting stronger
and i think i know just what i have to do
i can't waste another minute
after all that i've put in it
i've given you my best
why does she get the best of you
so the next time you find
you wanna leave her bed for mine

why dont you stay
im up off my knees
im so tired of being lonely
you cant give me what i need
when she begs you not to go
there is one thing you should know
i dont have to live this way
baby why dont you stay

yeah yeah oh oh oh oha oh

This song is great! I used to play it all the time, in fact, I burned my xAP a copy of the song and told him to listen to the last verse.

Another song about a cake-eater.

Onward and upward.

I needed this today. I am to posting on this board. I had a horrible night. I've been living a lie. I thought that maybe he was divorced or separated. I found that I am wrong...so wrong. It hurts and I am exhausted. I don't want this experience to make me bitter, just stronger. But today, I am just here.

I want to end things, but I have yet to know how. What I mean with that is...do I want to write a letter/my thoughts (whether I give it to him or not), do I want to say something about this, or do I just want to walk away. The hardest part about the last one is that it's not me. It's never been my personality to do something like that. Whether it's a job or a friendship or a relationship, I have to officially end things. It allows me to wash my hands and open the door for new opportunities. And I would want someone to do the same to me if they were walking away....but for now, I don't think I am strong enough to face him. I feel horrible about myself and how I let this happen.

Anyway, thank you for your song. It has helped get me through one more moment.

U have to do whats best for you, maybe an email? if you are scared to face him? But some just walk away n no explanation, no nothing. If you are serious and u want this over, then do whaever you need to. But make it a one way street of communication. Tell him what you have to say and then block/change everything. Everything. An email response may make you feel worse and if your mind is made up....if its made up, does what he have to say really matter?
