Earth 3rd Rock from the sun!!

I've been reading between the lines again
seeing through tear soaked eyes
Locking away another page from our history book
I did the giving, you always took
And you've been coloring outside the lines again
Tell me baby how have we been?


'Cause in my heart I've been gone so long
And I can't even remember our wedding song
And this fairytales gone on too long
Got to find a resting place
figure out where I belong
'Cause in my heart I knew it was all wrong

I guess I knew too much about you
You painted a perfect world for me
you thought it would keep me there
I found your world can be a bit cold
Didn't want to hang around and grow old
So it's over
it's nothing
I just stood there
by your side
still so lonely
and I would sneak out
to see him
you knew where i was going
never took your blinders off
are all my friends this lonely?
I needed more room
had to figure it out
I can't get it back
and you couldn't tell
when I looked in your eyes
tearing out another page
to shreds......
a mixture of pleasure and pain
addicted to this drug
so hard to go
you had to know
we were no good together
a love and hate game
and I may as well take the blame

'Cause in my heart I've been gone so long
And I can't even remember our wedding song
And this fairytales gone on too long
Got to find a resting place
figure out where I belong
'Cause in my heart I knew it was all wrong

'Tell me baby how have we been?'

Guess if one has to ask that question -
the answer is .... pending !

CHeeeeezzzz!!!!--How did I miss this?  I am so glad I caught up to it.  This is a wonderful creation from you and I hope you find where you want to be soon.  It isnt easy not knowing where to be but even harder yet not knowing where we WANT to be.   Stick around some....we miss having you around so much
