Whenever I'm hurt, you are my nurse
|
You stand beside me through all seasons
|
You clean up my face, you fill up my space
|
With white linen and syringes
|
Out on the road you carry my load
|
Make it lighter when I feel weak
|
And when i am blind you crawl in my mind
|
And make me wiser than I could ever be alone
|
|
I know it ain't easy
|
I know it's getting harder for you
|
I know it ain't easy
|
But these are the roads that we choose
|
|
When I make a mess you wash and you dress me
|
When I'm wired you talk me down
|
When I'm a fool you're calm and you're cool
|
I never want for anything when you're around
|
When I'm in your bed, all you ever do
|
Is treat me with respect, but I don't know how
|
|
I know It ain't easy
|
Yes, I know it's getting harder for you
|
I know it ain't easy
|
But these are the roads that we choose
|
|
Though I've made some big mistakes
|
You don't complain at all
|
Even when you come and find me
|
Crying like a baby
|
Standing up in the bathtub
|
|
Whenever I'm hurt, you are my nurse
|
You stand beside me through all seasons
|
You're patient when I'm slow, warm when I'm cold
|
You're everything I'm not, you know everything I don't
|
|
I know it ain't easy
|
I know it's getting harder for you
|
I know it ain't easy
|
But these are the roads that we choose
|
These are the roads that we choose
|
These are the roads that we choose
|
