So the story goes on down
The less traveled road
It's a variation on

The one i was told
And although it's not the same
It's awful close, yeah


In an ordinary fairy tale land
There's a promise of a perfect happy end

And i imagine having just short of that
Is better than nothing


So you'll be mine
Forever and almost always
And i'll be fine

Just love me when you can
And i'll wait patiently
I'll wake up everyday

Just hoping that you still care

In the corner of my mind i know too well

Oh, that surely even i deserve the best
But instead of leaving
I just put the issue to bed

And outta my head

Oh, and just when i believe

You've changed for good
Well, you go and prove me wrong
Just like i knew you would

When i run out of second chances
You give me that look
And you're off the hook


Because you're mine
Forever and almost always

And i'm fine
Just love me when you can
And i'll wait patiently

I'll wake up everyday
Just hoping that you'll still care


Forever and almost always
No, it ain't right
To just love me when you can, baby

Ain't gonna wait patiently
I won't wake up everyday
Just hoping that you still care
