Cactus in the Valley (Acoustic Version) Lights

[Verse 1]
I never meant to wither
I wanted to be tall
Like a fool, left the river
And watched my branches fall
Old and thirsty, I longed for the flood to come back around
To the cactus in the valley, that's about to crumble down

[Chorus 1]
And wipe the mark of sadness from my face
Show me that your love will never change
If my yesterday is a disgrace
Tell me that you still recall my name

[Verse 2]
So, the storm finally found me, and left me in the dark
In the cloud around me
I don't know where you are
If this whole world goes up in arms, all I can do is stand
And I won't fight for anyone until you move my hand

[Chorus 2]
And wipe the mark of madness from my face
Show me that your love will never change
If my yesterday is a disgrace
Tell me that you still recall my name
