"Don't be waiting for me"

I have no idea why it has been so hard for me to get this song recorded and put on the blog.
Last week I see that I had 71 views on the blog from Russia. Curious about that. It was fun to see and makes a guy wonder who's watching huh?
I relate the song to the book of James in the bible.
James 1:12-15 says in the New International Version, "
12 Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.
13 When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; 14 but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. 15 Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death."
I worked on this in a couple of different keys and settled on D major. I am counting this as song number 47, so I still owe 5 more for this year, as I have promised 52 for 2015. Maybe now I can settle in and get a few more before the new year.

Don't be waiting for me, when I call don't be home.
Don't call my name as you lie there alone,
I belong to someone else, there's no way can't you see.
Can this be hurting you as much as it's hurting me.

I know if we cheated we could never be free,
two broken hearts would pay the penalty,
I can't help how I feel, I can't lie to my soul.
I want you more than life but no one will ever know.
