This Girl I've Known

Folder: 
Nessa

she believes in things that

have been proven wrong

long

ago



she hasn't learned her

lesson yet

and she's not

about to

(and i feel she shouldn't have to)



is she innocent or niave?

is there any space between?

does it really matter to me?

cause it's her love we all need



i want to be around her soul

...no matter how many of those thoughts come along



she percieves these things that

she'll say to you so strong

but

so soft



she sits and listens

hasn't seen through them yet

and she's not

about to

(and i fear the way she may find out)



is she innocent or niave?

is there any space between?

does it really matter to me?

cause it's her love we all need



i want to be around her soul

...no matter how many of those thoughts come along



and she doesn't force them on you

she holds her ground but holds you close

she's always there when you need

no matter what you believe



and believe me,

there's things we see the same and things we see so differently



i could listen to her all day

we could talk about anything

we'll kid around about silliness

and i'll hide with her in fantasy



and we'll come back out again

she don't need to be dragged out of there

just give a little more time

god, you know i tried

to stand in the way

and show her the way

at the same time

like glass so she could see from the outside



is she innocent or niave?(was i strong enough?)

is there any space between?

does it really matter to me?(did i break down?)

cause it's her love we all need



i want to be around her soul(again see her face)

...no matter how many of those thoughts come along(full with an innocent smile)



it's not as much what you believe as your character

that utlimately decides this world, it's your love

that couldn't hold a hand wrong

(she never held a hand wrong)

that's a lesson i'll remember all my life
