Weight of the World

I've wasted so much time

Spilled so many tears

But I'm still waiting by your side

Waiting by your side

Days and weeks went by

Just holding your hand

In a truth from which I could not hide

But I know deep inside

That you will always hear me when I sing

Our song will reach through

And take you away on its wing

The weight of the world

Is falling on my back tonight

But what can I do?

Should I be counting on you

The weight of the world

Is killing me and I cannot fight

Can you assist?

Alone I cannot resist

I was waiting for the dawn

Just holding my breath

When they came and covered your eyes

I've been calling you alone

Trying to get you back

But you did not hear my cries

How I wish you could stay

And leave another day

I hate whatever gods that took you from me

And all I have left is

The weight of the world

Is falling on my back tonight

But what can I do?

Should I be counting on you

The weight of the world

Is killing me and I cannot fight

Can you assist?

Alone I cannot resist
