(for steph aka stacy)
growing up and trying to trust
willing to give that second chance
made mistakes, gave in to lust
looking for that one true romance
guarded eyes watch for the tell
and maybe some hope of the truth
told me quietly, but voiced like an angel
this is what she said she'd do
she said
"i'm going to know where
somewhere must be
then i'm going to somewhere
that's where i will be"
working hard and then in between
trying to make some sense of life
made a pact with the devil she'd been
reliving those dreams more than twice
planning a future better than this
not intending to pull out her roots
but there's always some other wish
or something that she has to do
still she says
"i'm going to know where
somewhere must be
then i'm going to somewhere
that's where i will be"
grew up, but still willing to trust
somehow that's something she learned
won't give in like the rest of us
we're too tired to even get burned
she makes her plans and promises too
her life will be as good as it gets
she told me once, she told me true
something to never forget
she said
"i'm going to know where
somewhere must be
then i'm going to somewhere
that's where i will be,
that's where i will be."
