On the Inside

You were looking for someone older who had a sturdy shoulder to cry on  
We both knew it was wrong but you needed someone strong to rely on  
 
::Chorus::  
Honey I'm just as fragile as you  
Inside I'm nothing but sticks and glue  
I may be a bear on the outside  
I know, and so do you, he was better for you  
You made him such a beautiful bride  
I had to push you away even though I wanted you to stay... so much  
I miss your youth and your style, your wit and your smile, ... your touch  
I'm falling apart on the inside  
 
You said that our age was just another page, and I wanted to believe you  
But the clocks on the wall, I'm afraid it says it all, sooner or later I'd leave you  
I never wanted to pass away leaving you old and gray, and all alone  
Don't want you crying as part of you is dying, at my funeral stone  
 
Chorus  
 
I could tell that you cared when you caught him mid stare, made you blush  
I knew you wanted to stay but you turned to walk away... in a rush  
 
Chorus  
 
On the inside
