Do You Care?

I'm tired of trying
I'm tired of crying
I'm tired of feeling so bad
I'm tired of sighing
I'm tired of lying
And saying I'm happy when sad.

I believed that you care
In your heaven up there
That you never would leave me alone
Yet I still sit here lonely
After pleading for only
Someone to love of my own.

I don't ask for much
I need a heart's touch
I want to be known as a wife
I'm so tired of waiting
That I'm contemplating
Putting an end to my life.

So please answer my prayer
If you really do care
And ease this, my heart's deepest pain
Let someone sweet love me
And set my heart free
To live in Love's joy again.
