I wish I could have been stronger today
I let you down, my pride in the way
You needed me tough, on my weakest of days
All I have left is this apology
I don't need you to wear my ring
Don't need to be on your mind with every song you sing
I'm still gonna miss you every time you walk away
And all that I ask is please be ready
For me to love you this way
I'm done trying to hold you, even show you the door
And I ain't worried, cause I know you know your way home
I'm too proud to beg, too stubborn to walk away
I'm gonna spend the rest of my days giving you a reason to stay
And I don't need you to wear my ring
Don't need to be on your mind with every song you sing
I'm still gonna miss you every time you walk away
And all that I ask is please be ready
For me to love you this way
I'll make you a coffee with just the right amount of cream
Hold you all morning and dive into those dreams
I know you like your bath water so hot that it steams
Order us a round a whiskey, you know it's always neat
I don't need you to wear my ring
Don't need to be on your mind with every song you sing
I'm still gonna miss you every time you walk away
And all that I ask is please be ready
For me to love you this way
For me to love you this way
For me to love you this way
For me to love you this way
