I'm  no more than a friend girl
I  can see that you need more
my  boots are on my feet now
my  back  is by the door
the  love and the attention
that  you need and ask me for
 are  weakened by my absence
 and  the lies  that i have told
I'm  scared to  think that I've abandoned  you
I'd  like to say that I'm a faithful  man but
it  may  not be true
 My heart is like a mason's
 hand(s?) of weathered skin
 each scar makes it harder
 for me to hurt again
I'm  scared to  think that I've abandoned  you
I'd  like to say that I'm a faithful  man but
 / // / //  (could be )  / // / // /  // //  // //  / /
 or
 Gabriella, the things that I tell ya,
 
 are only to help ya, are they working ou---ou--out.
 I have I gone, have I gone and failed ya,
 oh, Gabriella, have I let you down---own...
 or
 Gabriella, the things that I tell ya,
 
 are only to help ya, are they working ou---ou--out.
 I have I gone, have I gone and failed ya,
 oh, Gabriella, have I let you down---own...
