Tight Lipped and Open Armed

Standing still
With a little
History in my pocket
But it’s just
History so I burn it
And it’s gone
On a line
Where the past lies just behind me
And the future’s ahead smiling brightly
Let’s take a step and we’ll see

Chorus
So am I bitter at love
Or am I jealous of those
Who seem to find it so easily
So as you’re looking at me
Bright eyed with your lovely face
Could you feel something for
Someone like me

Moving on
With some indignation
And just a little determination
With open eyes I step outside
Into the sun
From this prison where I was locked away
But now I’m just walking away
Take another step and I’ll see

Chorus

Wide awake and dreaming
There’s no need for sleeping
Because I’ve got you on my mind
Wanna write you a love song
Or leave roses on your lawn
So you can learn to love somebody new
Someone who loves you….

So am I always alone
Because I’m jealous of those
Who seem to find love so easily
Can I come out of my shell
Cause I’ve got something to tell you
But it’s hard for me to say…

Chorus x2
