Couldn't take it

You don’t have to worry about me leaving. I’m not like you. I don’t think you could take the pain you put me through. I won’t hurt you like that. Leaving in the middle of the hardest times, with another man. Went on down to California to get a real nice tan. Well now that were back to the way things were I don’t want to screw things up. So I’m not leaving. You couldn’t take the pain you put me through. Left without saying goodbye, didn’t even leave a note. All you did was get on the next boat. I don’t want to hurt you the way you hurt me. I couldn’t take the guilt of causing that kind of pain. I’ll be with you even when it starts to rain. All I ever wanted was to know your name. After a few years of marriage my fiery love was still their. After a few years of marriage I was tame. But then she left and tore my heart to pieces. I couldn’t take the pain I went on down to the bar. Came out four hours later my pain was gone but only for a short time. It came again in the late hours of the night I fell to my knees crying. I had lost the only thing I ever loved, she was the reason I woke up day after day. I couldn’t take the pain, went on down to the bridge. Climbed up on to one of the posts, leaped off that’s the last I remember of my life on earth. I couldn’t take the pain, I don’t think you could either so I won’t hurt you like that.
