Hop ing I didn't
upset you before when I said
I'd much rather
walk home alone
than stay at your bed
I know it's still raining
and I will be soaking wet
At least it won't be from the tears
that I would have shed
I'm playing it safe
to avoid feeling pain and regret
No matter how much I hurry,
you're always ahead
Steady moves, no rush
Adjusting to your touch
Inch by inch
One step at a time
You are clarifying my gender, oh my
Po etic phrases and
love declarations in a row
Your sweet suggestions
are always replied by a no
I'm betting you will
lose your patience
and then let me go
I know it's well -hidden,
but you had me when you said hello
Steady moves, no rush
Adjusting to your touch
Inch by inch, one stem at a time
You are clunging, like jagged wood
My heart has been long caused by
damage and great misery
I don't know when, but I promise
You will find the key
Steady moves, no rush
Adjust it to your time
So you can try,
but it's your one step at a time
You are flying down a gentler
line
Hoping I didn't upset you
before when I tried
I'd much rather walk home alone
than stay in your bed
I know it's still raining
and I will be soaked
And when I'm gone, I'll you how I
At least it won't be from the tears
that I would have shed
You
