You've been hurt too many times

I know its hard to see who's right

so you cry night after night

staring at the stars and moonlight

Don't cry im on the way

I may not be there but think of the day

when you can hold some good for you

you deserve to be happy too

Think of the day where I wipe your sorrow away

make a joke and put a smile on your face

Dance with you and hold you close

whisper how much I love you the most

Don't cry im on the way

I may not be there but think of the day

when you can hold some good for you

you deserve to be happy too

Look out your window im in the drive

run to me and bring your smile

Im ready to love you let me show you how

Even the devil can't stop me now

Don't cry im on the way

I may not be there but think of the day

when you can hold some good for you

because you deserve to be happy too

Let this ring hold my true promise

that my heart will always be honest

Ill be all you ask and more

all I ask is for you to love me even when I fall short

Don't cry im on the way

I may not be there but think of the day

when you can hold some good for you

you deserve to be happy too
