Then how can our relationship ever be true?
if you sneak out the way you do.
When late at night, he think I'm asleep.
I see the secrets that you keep.
out in the night you run to her house.

...And begin a life worth livin'
that's what she said to him,
said he was wasting his life,
she told him to smarten up or leave,
the boy left, came back years later.
He began a silly boy, ended a man,
she married that man,
that man is me.
I love her and she loves me.

With a bond that will never be broken,
Damn, this Elmers Glue is really good,
Can't seem to separate these two boards,
Just hope I never again need this wood.

For getting it from his house I never could,
Even if I tried,
He is the reason that I cried,
I'd never go back even if someone said I should.

Go back, that is not the way for me to go.
The reason is clear, never do I think I could.
Backwards is not the direction for me I know.
Forward I go, maybe this time I will be understood.

Atop that pretty scatter rug..
Talk with me if you dare..

Talk with me if you dare,
I promise, you won't feel square,
So don't despair,
Get your arse from over there,
Plonk it exactly over here,
Talk with me, my dear,
Honest, you really have nothing to fear!

Just to knock it off, I swear.
