Please, just deliver me peace and a chance to stay.
It ain't even closure I need, it's a recovery.
Well, I'd sink in the water or cry at the altar -
I'd bleed for a minute to say?

That he won't bring you summer like the way I will
And he won't make you shiver like the way I will
And he won't love your mother like the way I will
And he won't last forever like the way I will.

God, if I'd only have thought, then she'd wear my name.
Shame how you look when you fail, and babe, I look that way.
Well, you say that we're over, there's nothing to show for
The years you spent trying to say?

That she won't bring me summer like the way you will
And she won't make me shiver like the way you will
And she won't love my mother like the way you will
And she won't last forever like way you will.

Please, just a minute now.
Please, just a second now.
Please, just a moment to say?

That he won't bring you summer like the way I will
And he won't make you shiver like the way I will
And he won't love your mother like the way I will
And he won't last forever like the way I will.
