This is a song that I wrote while driving home
I realised everytime that I have to leave,
I've got to deattach more and more of you from me.
_____________________________________
I was just mindin' my business,
when you stumbled upon me,
& started throwin' rocks in my lake.
That's when I knew things started-- with a mistake.
That's when the tides started changin'
You decided to go for a swim,
My name started rearrangin'
at the touch of your skin
There was an undeniable shake
like something got shifted.
My thoughts trembled and quaked,
& I hate to admit this,
I don't want this storm to leave
Let its waves rise, and crash down on me
You're the hurricane reaching my shores;
I don't mind if the lightning strikes,
or if the thunder roars
Now your plannin' on leavin'
& I'd always seen it comin'
crashin' down every wall.
There was no rhyme or reason
in this disastrous fall
I was just mindin' my business
when you stumbled upon your way,
started kickin rocks in every direction
now we've got nothin' left to say.
You let the road take you elsewhere,
But the traffic signs weren't obeyed.
You started drivin' faster
& That's when Thursday's giant got slayed.
Now there's someone else that your after.
At first I thought I was broken and shattered.
So I have made new pieces,
& put them back together.
Let the wind take me away;
Seal my lips to keep me from sinkin;
The moon now shines brighter
& I'm accustom to the damage,
That has made my heart lighter.
I won't let go of the past,
It's all that i have
& you're out of my grasp--
Cause none of these storms
were meant to last
