Album: Goodbye

Inside

(hillier)
A man is talking to me
We're at my brother's party
I know what trust is
The key
For us
But he's a charmer
And you are elsewhere
I take precautions
I've little caution sometimes
His eyes are understanding
His words are gentle to me
He has a girlfriend
At home
He says
It's not my background
To be unsound
It's wrong to have him
In my defense I say this
I love the things you show me
I love the way you hold me
I love the fact that you're not here
Tonight
I'll take the gamble
Because I'm able
And no I'm not proud
To hope that you won't find out
His hands are moving closer
My blushing cheeks are over
Everyone knows our names
In my defense, I'm human
In my defense, I'm stupid
And if of this I lose you
In my defense
I love
You
In my defense
I love
You
