| Running The Line Out |
| You made me sad, I wanted to run Then you said you were mad at yourself for what you had done I forgave you as I decided maybe there was a chance So I am going forward now without a backward glance I have decided that I love you even though I wish it wasn't true I feel like kicking and screaming and running and fleeing How could I have let you in? My walls were good and closed, to all they were opposed But you were different from all the others You didn't try to take my walls by force You just walked right on by as on a different course Then the next thing I knew, you had come in from the back I guess a deadbolt back there was something that I lacked Now don't get me wrong, for you I could live without I am not crazy in love, with you that cannot be I'm cautiously still waiting to see if you are going to hurt me I have my love on a line so that it can be reeled in I can't let it go too far because that would leave a chance for me to be hurt again Did I make a mistake by letting you in? I don't think I did, no matter how this turns out Because you have made me happy, for that there is no doubt If nothing else, you have taught me that there is a little girl Inside of me who still believes in things Such as knights and castles and other childhood dreams I thought that I had lost this and that it never would return But you have taught me this lesson that I really needed to learn You taught me that I still believe in all of these things although not as strong as before and so much more I hope that we are happy for a long time to come If we are truly meant to be, then our love will last forever If not, then at least we have enjoyed the time that we have had together Thanks for this lesson!
