it's one thing to love
and another to leave
tug on those heartstrings
with a trick up your sleeve.

grimace like a shark
sly as a fox
he'll throw out your heart
down on the rocks.

a close eye on him
means a second reprieve
your one step ahead
and its him that you'll leave.

watch for the signs
keep your head in the clear
cause those tricky devils
will feed on your fear.

so be like one pele
goddess of fire
hold onto your truth
wait out your desire.
