02 Barbed Wire Heart.txt
I gave up saying prayers today
And thinkin. It all. could
change
Stopped
Sittin on your back stairs
And
Put all my hope away
I know I'll feel bad for awhile
Feeling good again seems so far away
I Sure
missed true love - by a mile
But hope nothing that hurts
This much.
- will stay
I just don't know where to start
With this
Barbed wire around my heart
Where does it end ?
Where does it start?
This tangled barbed wire
Around my heart
Some build bridges
Some dig moats
To invite love in or keep it away
I guess
I've done a little bit of both
And there's always a price
either way
you have to pay
The thought of the past is always there
To Remind me of loving you
With each step I take
Like a Stone inside my shoe
Like a Stone inside my shoe
I'll shake the dust off my feet
And slowly walk away
But I still don't know where to start
With this barbed wire around my heart
But I still don't know where to start
With this tangled barbed wire around my heart
The Tangled Barbed Wire around my heart
The Tangled Barbed Wire around my heart
