Working three jobs, just the two of us. Still the bills kept piling up. Had a Chevrolet that was mostly rusting rubber. . We didnt know we had it made.
Theres an adventure in us all. That can lead us from the bank. To the waterfall. A leap of faith is what its called. . It is a journey on its own. Simply fueled by the hardened soul.
I watched you leave, I cried the tears. And I relive that moment every minute youre not here. And every day is harder than the day before. But Ill be patient until you find your way.
I live in a big house. Designer names with a room to roam. A circled drive, a car paid for. But still I wish for somethin more. . So many people in small houses.
I thought I had love once long ago. Just an emotional illusion cause it never came close. You left me empty, left me alone. You left me wonderin if I did somethin wrong.
Rumors spread, lies are told. Covering up a lover so nobody knows. Deceit and denial, foolish alibis. One innocent soul gets burned. . I used to be that woman.
High wire, walkin with no net. Never knowin if the very next step. Is gonna take me far or take me down. Leave me hangin or on solid ground. . Should I jump and face the hurt?.
Soft touches on my skin. Warm breath dancin'. Two bodies fit perfectly. A night that's full of magic. So close I can hardly stand it. Two hearts pounding rapidly.
A little girl who just turned nine. Awakes to another fight. She covers her head. And closes her eyes. . How could the neighbors not have heard. Done a thing or said a word.
I could force a smile. Say at least Ive loved for a little while. Consider myself a one of the lucky few. . Spend the rest of all time. Dreamin of when you were mine.
We camped out on the living room floor. In our old sleeping bags by a make-believe fire. In a tent made of covers, we'd talked for hours. My two brothers and me.
I never get tired of hearing your voice. Or watching you smile. The little way your eyes get a little lazy. When Im drivin you out. . The warmth of your touch.
Friend, I'm glad you called. It's been a long time, yeah, I'm doin' okay. And I hear he's fine no, we're not together. Don't apologize it don't bother me.
