The Way I Will

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

No, 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
