Silver Rings

There is more to us than just this

Hold silver rings that won't loosen from fingers

A perfect metaphor of you and me

You're in the sun, in the stone, in the dirt, all incomplete

I wanna know it for sure, can't remember it now

You're in my touch, in my walk, in the tightness of my grip

Want you to say it's the same from where you stand

And I could let it wash all away

But I'll always hold on to something good

Stare down into my regrets again

Controlled outcry of what I want to contain

Not one of your secrets remain

Makes me wonder if I was really seeing at all

There is more of me to give

Too much sometimes, I wanna give it all, give it in

Wanna say it all much too soon

But I don't wanna belong to anyone else

Still I can't keep in how it used to feel

Safe, drawn close to you in the glass

And I could say I've let it all go to waste

But I don't wanna be apart and still be wanting you

Stare down into my regrets again

Controlled outcry of what I want to contain

Not one of your secrets remain

Makes me wonder if I was really seeing
