I felt a twinge of worry
But then I said "No Way"
She knows my heart is aching
To hear her voice today

I waited all the morning
For that phone to ring
I prayed to God she’d call me
Knowing what happiness it’d bring

By noon I knew it wouldn’t happen
Her common sense had won
You see, I know its foolish
For her to think that I’m the one

The afternoon was hopeless
My body wouldn’t budge
I felt I was surrounded
By a mountain full of sludge

I thought about her feelings
And how unjust I am
To put her in this quandry
And play it like a lamb

I must admit confusion
Don’t know which way is right
Face our hearts desires
Or put them out of sight

I know one thing for certain
Her feelings must come first
Her happiness is precious
No matter how I thirst

This Sunday night I’ll ponder
Why God put her in my path
Was it an act of kindness
Or did I earn his wrath
