So you walked with me for a while 
Bared your naked soul 
And you told me of your plan 
How you would never let them know 

And she took me by the hand
And she said she had some plans
And I tried so hard
But I didn't quite understand
But she knows just what to say
And she always gets her way
And before too long it was clear as day
This girl was here to stay

And I wish her insight to battle love's blindness

Strength from the milk of human kindness

It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word
We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard

Just when everything was making sense
You took away all my self-confidence

Thirteen valleys lying silent in the haze
Filled with promises and spirits that we raised
But the spirits all are ghosts
Of the ones we hurt the most

There's nothing wrong with me loving you, baby no no
And giving yourself to me can never be wrong If the love is true
Don't you know how sweet and wonderful life can be

And you're so close, but I can't see you
And you're right there, but I can't see you
And I feel so dumb and I didn't know what to do
You were right there but I can't see you

And maybe love is letting people be just what they want to be
The door always must be left unlocked

The many sounds that meet our ears
The sights our eyes behold
Will open up our merging hearts
And feed our empty souls
