Just a call to say hello, keep in touch, I've got to go With a click you went away, just like you did too many days That call to say I'll see you around, just so you can let me down Just so you can turn the knife, strive to keep me in your life Though I've lived in many towns, you would always track me down To remind me of our past, that it's my fault we didn't last That you were never in the blame, though you took another's name Trying to keep me about, in case things did not work out I was but a safety net, I was but your surest bet It was my job to be around in case you ever fell to ground To be fit and capable to rebuild your pedastal Affection always returned, and repair your bridges burned Soon you'll find somebody new. I'll fade fast from your view I will again be cast aside as he takes you for a ride Until again I get a call, until again you take a fall Will I still be your safety net, will I still be your surest bet Just a call to say hello, keep in touch, I've got to go With a click you went away, just like you did too many days That call to say I'll see your around, just so you can let me down Just so you can turn the knife, strive to keep me in your life Alicat 9/9/04 [Insert disclaimer here] |

Though I've lived in many towns, you would always track me down To remind me of our past, that it's my fault we didn't last That you were never in the blame, though you took another's name Trying to keep me about, in case things did not work out sounds familiar..not for me but from others I know~~ *s M |

sooner or later, the gratitude for the safety net turns to resentment anyhow. But inserting that disclaimer, I reckon that was figured out long ago. |

AAUGH! Oh-man-oh-man-oh-man......and this got only three responses....one wonders whether it is because all to many of us were tongue-tied by our own guilt.....? ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
