Sweeter Than Me

Yesterday morning when you told me
That you have never felt this lonely
I saw the sadness in your eyes
You told me how you feel disguised
Confiding in me about the sleepless
Nights that you cannot seem to keep this
Hurting buried in your dreams
You’re facing darkness twice as deep
You’re much sweeter than me by far
You’re much stronger than me
You know you are
Look up at the floral pattern curtains
In picking them out you were so certain
Now there’s indecision in your eyes
You’re finding comfort thinking twice
By leaning in your windowsill
You show me all I need to know
Whether you see Summer, Winter or Fall
When I look at you I see them all
Sit down at the table with your jewelry
Remembering each and every story
You’re much sweeter than me by far
You’re much stronger than me by far
You’re much sweeter than me by far
You’re much stronger than me
You know you are
