remember the road

to Sweet
you know my habits
my little routines
how I wake up in the morning
wrap myself in a sheet
sit down with my coffee and write for a while
you know the silly things to say
that always make me smile
you know when I say
at the end of the day
"I need to stretch out"
that I probably won't get up again
you know when I say 5 minutes
I always mean ten
like when I'm chatting with someone
need a little more sleep
walking out the door
or close to finishing
anything
you know I laugh when I'm nervous
talk fast when I lie
would never hurt you on purpose
and hate to cry
you know I need to walk for miles
sometimes
and those rare days when I'm quiet
you're still on my mind

you know I'm good and wasted when I say
"I'm just fine"

You don't seam to notice that I seldom cook
or do nothing for days
when I'm in a good book
and how I mean well
when I say
I'll get it all done today
and you don't care that I seldom do
all the things I set out to do
and when I'm longing to move
you take me away
and when I need someone close
you always stay
and when I write something so good
it makes me want to cry
you read it ~ tell me I'm amazing
and how glad you are that I
am just as I am
just as I am
You actually love me ~ Just as I am.



Stop in for a while
you know the way
remember the road
it's still the same
where ever I go
you know the way to the door with my name
you know you're welcome
you're always welcome here...
I haven't seen you in a while
I haven't heard your voice
I know I was the one to run
you helped me make the choice
but I love you
and where ever I go
I see your eyes
when I close mine
and the dreams they change
but you are so often there
that it no longer feels strange
that you seam close
though a thousand or more miles away
stop in for a talk
in the middle of the night
I'll climb out my widow
for a midnight walk
just like we used to do
your auburn eyes
your auburn hair
the freckles that you hate ~ I love
just like everything else about you
I know I let you down...
I know I let alot of people down
but the thought of the word hurt
between my name and yours
breaks my heart again
when I think of all the shit that you put up with back then
I needed you
I still do
tho I don't deserve a love like yours
I am longing still
to sit with you on the window sill
to laugh with you in a green grass park
and wander the streets of a city we both left a long time ago
come back this way
the road you know
the road you know so well
back to the door that bares my name
where ever I go
it remains the same
and you know better than any other
what we always meant to eachother
 you probably still know me better than any lover
and I...
I love you even more than I miss you girl...
If that is possible.
