You stand,
Watching,
Mocking,
Wondering what I'll do.
I stand,
Peering,
Yearning,
Trying to decipher you.
Discover,
Uncover,
As lover,
Or other,
But I fear what I'll find
If I open your mind.
I start to reach toward you,
But pull back, uncertain
You seem to be eager
To give me your burden.
Inside I know I shouldn't set you free,
For doing so would be the end of me...
But leave, My Love, I couldn't ever do,
For doing so would be the end of you...

You stand,
Watching,
Mocking,
Wondering what I'll do.
I stand,
Peering,
Yearning,
Trying to decipher you.
Discover,
Uncover,
As lover,
Or other,
But I fear what I'll find
If I open your mind.
I start to reach toward you,
But pull back, uncertain
You seem to be eager
To give me your burden.
Inside I know I shouldn't set you free,
For doing so would be the end of me...
But leave, My Love, I couldn't ever do,
For doing so would be the end of you...
