I've Got A Lot
for the one who sings to me...

I've got a lot of thinking to do
I've got a lot of growing
And I have to let go of you
Of her, of him, of us and we,
You see, we have some explaining to do
You know, I'd really like to plea
An apology to you
For standing in the shallow end
So scared I might drown in you

I've got a lot of learning
I've got all these burning embers inside of me
I've got all this breathing that I missed
Holding my tongue when I was young
And holding back yesterday
With you standing by me
Like you are right now
Like you are today
I forgot
I forgot to say
I've  got a lot
I've got a lot to say

You broke free
The muse and creator inside of me
If it's all the same to you
I'd like to blame you
For all this feeling
I've got all these feelings
Dormant for about a thousand years
Erupted like desire
Triggered by your fire
Breaking the cycle of all my fears

Yet I'm still sitting back
With you still standing there
With this song as my voice
So as I stare
I've got your attention
You've got all my love
I got a smile on your face
I got my hands tied above
I got a tear on my cheek
And the memory of the feel of yours
So forget me not
Forget me not
Just let this run it's course
And remember
We've got a lot
Blessed and lucky
We've got a lot
I'd like to thank you
For all I've got
I'm blessed and lucky with you
I've got a lot
