Once Upon A Time I Was Meant To Save You pt. 2

Excuse me sir
but what did you just say
Darling he said
I was in your shoes once
I wanted to jump
like you wanted to jump
I wanted to give up
he looked down, not looking proud
but something inside of me
stopped me that night
like somehow I knew
it wasn’t my time to die
my reply, well sir you don’t
know my story
he stopped me and said
I know but I’d like to change that soon
If you’ll let me in
I looked down and sighed
Why was this man trying to help me?
Why was he trying to save my life?
He noticed my doubt and lifted
my head so my brown orbs met his blue ones
Darling, I would be lying if I said
that times would never get rough
But I want to help you, love you
I will stand here all night trying to convince you
I’m here to help you, let me in darling
His eyes were pleading, mine were tearing
My reply was Alright sir I’ll only give you
one night to prove yourself better than
my attempt tonight I swear if you hurt me
I will run and leap and you’ll never
see it coming, you’ll never see me running sir
he said Oh darling
Don’t worry, remember I know what
you’re going through
I was in your shoes
Now I realize I was meant
to save you
