First I was af

            
raid, I was pe

trified
              
Kept thinking 

             
I could never 

            
live without y

   
ou by my side
         
But I spent so

              
 many nights t

           
hinking how yo

u did me wrong
             
I grew strong,

            
 I learned how

          
 to carry on
              
and so you're 

            
back from oute

  
r space

in to find you

            
 here with tha

      
t sad look upo

n your face
              
I should have 

         
changed my stu

              
pid lock I sho

           
uld have made 

 
you leave your

 key
             
If I had known

second you'd b
