Together

Yeah, there was a time I didn't like the love, I liked the climbers I was no sister then, I was running out of time and one liners And I was afraid, like you are, when you're too young to know the time, and So I watch the way you take your fear and horde the horizon You point, you have a word for every woman you can lay your eyes on Like you own them just be cause you bought the time And you turn to me, you say you hope I'm not threatened Oh and that's not petty As cool as I am, I thought you'd know this already I will not be afraid of women I will not be afraid of women So now we're at a club, you watch the woman dancing, she is drunk She is smiling and she's falling in a slow, descending funk And the whole bar is loud and proud and everybody's trying, yeah You play the artist, saying, "Is it how she moves, or how she looks?" I say, it's lonliness suspended to our own like grappling hooks And as long as she's got noise, she's fine But I could teach her how I learned to dance when the music's ended Oh and that's not petty As cool as I am, I thought you'd know this already I will not be afraid of women I will not be afraid of women You tried to make me doubt To make me guess Tried to make me feel like a little less Oh, I liked you when your soul was bared I thought you knew how to be scared And now it's amazing what you did to make me stay But truth is just like time, it catches up and it just keeps going Oh, and so I'm leaving, you can find out how much better things can get And if it helps, I'd say I feel a little worse than I did when we met So when you find someone else, you can try again, it might work next time You look out of the kitchen window and you shake your head and say low "If I could believe that stuff, I'd say that woman as a halo." And I look out and say, "Yeah, she's really blond." And then I go outside and join the others, I am the others Oh and that's not petty As cool as I am, I thought you'd know this already I will not be afraid of women I will not be afraid of women
