I pack my bags & say goodbye to my wife
for what seems like the millionth time
They said it gets easier, but they lied
She looks at me & says 'really baby I will be just fine'
but then she looks away
so I don't have to see her cry
And that is when I ask myself
how am I supposed to be
everything they expect me to be
when I feel so alone
cause I left my heart at home
She needs me
but I know they need me too
So God, give me the strength to do
what you created me to do
Really I'm so thankful for the people I meet
the places I've been & the things I've seen
but when she's not here it doesn't feel like I'm living my dream
I know they say that no one is perfect
but I swear she's perfect for me
and that makes it so much harder to leave
How am I supposed to be
everything they expect me to be
when I feel so alone
cause I left my heart at home
She needs me
but I know they need me too
So God, give me the strength to do
what you created me to do
If you miss me
I'm just a phone call away
Please be strong
be strong for me
I need you to show me
how to change the inside of me
For my heart
for their sake
Be strong, be strong for me!
How am I supposed to be
everything they expect me to be
when I feel so alone, so alone!
How am I supposed to be
everything they expect me to be
when I feel so alone
cause I left my heart at home
She needs me
but I know they need me too
So God, give me the strength to do
what you created me to do
