To Your Love

Here's another speech you wish I'd swallow

Another cue for you to fold your ears

Another train of thought too hard to follow

Chuggin' along to a song that belongs to the shifting of gears

Please forgive me for my distance

The pain is evident in my existence

Please forgive me for my distance

The shame is manifest in my resistance

To your love

To your love

To your love

I would've warned you, but really, what's the point?

Caution could but rarely ever helps

Don't be down, my demeanor tends to disappoint

It's hard enough even trying to be civil to myself

Please forgive me for my distance

The pain is evident in my existence

Please forgive me for my distance

The shame is manifest in my resistance

To your love

To your love

To your love

My derring-do allows me to

Dance the rigadoon around you

But by the time I'm close to you

I lose my desideratum and now you

So now you have it, so tell me, baby, what's the word?

Am I your gal or should I get out of town?

I just need to be reassured

Do you just deal it out or can you deal with all that I lay down?

Please forgive me for my distance

The pain is evident in my existence

Please forgive me for my distance

The shame is manifest in my resistance

To your love

To your love

To your love

To your love

To your love

To your love

To your love

To your love
