I pack my bags and say goodbye to my wife For what seems like the millionth time They said it gets easier But they lied She looks at me and says 'Really, baby, I will be just fine' But then she looks away So I don't have to see her cry And that is when I ask myself How am I supposed to be Everything they expect me to be When I feel so alone 'Cause I left my heart at home? She needs me But I know that you need me too So God, give me the strength to do What you created me to do Really I'm so thankful for the people I meet The places I've been And the things I've seen But when she's not here It doesn't feel like I'm living my dream I know they say That no one is perfect But I swear she's perfect to me And that makes it so much harder to leave How am I supposed to be Everything they expect me to be When I feel so alone 'Cause I left my heart at home? She needs me, but I know that you need me too So God, give me the strength to do What you created me to do If you need me, I am just a phone call away Please be strong, be strong for me
