You are blessed by God
and that blessedness
leaves me breathless;
But.....
aw.. **** love..
The shame didn't come from me
and neither did the all-consuming condemnation..
*yet my direct words to you make you feel
as though I am the author of both*
Love, infused with truth
is a language all its own
but you can't do it.. can you
You are wholly unable to see yourself
as someone truly Loveworthy
You can't see it,
and so it is my words to you
that you attack
and then run from
and then run to
and then fall in love with
*And then you rage
and then you hide
as it churns*
***as it churns
as it churns***
And you think its from me
And you think I am the author of both
*But it was i n y o u before we ever met
and because of that, I lose everything*..
because I won't stop doing
what it is that I do.
*Love is different
than what it sometimes feels to you*

Her telephone rang 'bout a quarter to nine
she heard his voice on the other end of the line
she wondered what was wrong this time
She never knew what his calls might bring
with a cowboy like him, it could be anything..
And she always expected the worst
in the back of her mind
He said, "It's cold out here and I'm all alone
didn't make the short go again, and I'm coming home
I know I've been away too long..
I never got a chance to write or call
and I know this rodeo has been hard on us all
But I'll be home soon
and honey is there somethin' wrong?"
She said, "Don't bother comin' home
by time you get here I'll be long gone
There's somebody new and he sure ain't no rodeo man."
He said, "I'm sorry it's come down to this
there's so much about you that I'm gonna miss
But it's alright baby
if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne..
Gotta go now baby,
if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne."
He left that phone danglin' off the hook
then slowly turned around and gave it one last look
then he just walked away
He aimed his truck toward that Wyoming line
with a little luck he could still get there in time
And in that Cheyenne wind he could still hear her say..
She said, "Don't bother comin' home
by time you get here I'll be long gone
There's somebody new and he sure ain't no rodeo man.."
He said, "I'm sorry it's come down to this
there's so much about you that I'm gonna miss
But it's alright baby,
if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne
Gotta go now baby
if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne.."
She never knew what his calls might bring
with a cowboy like him, it could be anything..
and she always expected the worst
In the back of her mind
