I DON’T KNOW
VERSE
I don’t know who told you that but let me explain
I would never harm you for my personal gain.
Acting in that way would make me feel self-disdain,
Causing me pain. Yet,
VERSE’
Why would someone smear me, saying I am the guy
Hitting on all women who appear in my eye?
I don’t know but I assure you it’s such a lie,
Conjured to try my name.
BRIDGE
I had never been so happy as I’m now with you.
Why then would I jeopardize such joyfulness so true?
VERSE’
You’re the one I want to spend my time with today
And forever afterwards so don’t go away.
I don’t know but if I can convince you to stay
I will obey your call.
BRIDGE
You can reach me when you want to, whether near or far.
That’s because I’ll always strive to be your brightest star.
VERSE
You won’t need a telescope to keep me in sight.
I desire to rendezvous with you every night.
I don’t know if we have made the loose ends now tight.
You’re my delight. So
VERSE
Can’t we deconstruct misunderstandings like this
And then reassemble what without them is bliss?
I don’t know about you but I’d much rather kiss
Than maybe miss your
CODA
Than maybe miss your
Than maybe miss your face.(11-12-2005)
