The Past #11

In the Past

Verse1:

I can't stand straight

Stupid me with a bad back

I'm here for you

I'd support you any time



It's what you do with the love that she provides

You fight like hell to keep the warmth alive



It's hard to sit still

When you feel so exhausted

You force yourself awake

Because she's nearby



The gentle flow was always there

But it just faulters inside me

She's gotten into the air I breathe



And I just can't help but worry.



Chorus:

Without a word between,

she and I started everything.

The things we do to keep each other happy.

Oh my, sincerely me,

what I'd do for that girl.

She's a part of my world,

and I always apologize to her.



Verse2:

It's hard to say aloud

I feel love and I'm so proud

Everybody hurts all over again

And we'll step it up one more time



But the 'we' that belongs

Between the melody and the song

She's there to complete the pair

Living golden and keeping me aware



Things keep piercing at her sight

But along the way, she'd make it right

She's some kind of sweetness, subtle and defined

She's cutely sarcastic and lovingly inclined



Good fortune is up and debating over me,

she's just waiting to make me feel like a person again.



Chorus . . .



(I saw you time and time again,

and I just couldn't touch you.

You and I paid no mind,

things kept revolving around you.)



Chorus . . .



Verse3:

I'm not beyond repair

You're always there for me

I extend a metal hand,

and you extend your purity



I couldn't manage to hide from you



(Without a word between,)



These simple, beautiful things you do



(She and I started everything.)



Everything seems a little less hectic,



(Oh my, sincerely me,)



when I speak of them to you.



(She's a part of my world.)



For as long as you can stand it,

you'll be a prime concern of mine.

The way I feel will just be in plain view.



And I may always end up apologizing to you.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

My first attempt at lyrics in almost two years. I had good reason, I suppose.
