Try not to worry. Try not to fret. It's just a little word. It shouldn't lead to debt.
You keep it in your head you let it slip from your mouth.
But do you really mean it? Is that what it's about?
The L word means a lot. I hope that you can see,
because of you it has really effected me.
I want to scream it out. As loud as I can be!
I want you to know you mean more than the world to me.
But times are changing and so has the word.
Now it's said with no meaning, it's just a regular verb.
It's ok I get it. You're leaving for the war.
But you said the L word and then you slammed the door.
You left me in a tizzy. A confused and dizzy state,
when you said the L word in a way of hate.
For such a little word it sure can pack a punch.
That day you took my breath away. I almost lost my lunch.
Tears came streaming down my face as I tried not to scream.
"Why does this feel like a bad dream!?"
I want to believe you, I want you to see. No matter how far away you go, you still mean the world to me.
It's ok I get it! You are leaving for the war. I will save my water works till you are out the door.
When it's time for goodbye I hope you will see. The L word means a lot, especially to me.
So say it from your heart, or don't say it at all. And know no matter what, I'll be here when you call.
