BY DESIGN By Tom Jensen
Sitting here and holding you
Learning another of life’s lessons
New point of view
Yes I’m alone or so it seems
Inside your mind your see
All these unlived dreams
When you forget then I forget
When you remember I turn my head
Away in shame as I gaze up
Candle light flickers…
As my eyes tear up
It’s not me who you want to be with
You wish to run free like a little kid
You're a mother – same as the Earth
Who’s greatest ever joy was giving birth
To a baby boy who you'll always put first
Yet I could have been second
Had I given you just a little more time
Impatience again is what wrecked it
And of course what am I expecting to find
It's just another case of sabotage by design
