Just Is _ APC

[rondin65]

You were back in town for just one night,
I was hanging some lights on the bridge,
You pulled over, asked for directions,
When you saw my face you grinned,
Called it cowardice that I never came,
I said it's not fear, it just is

You say I am, but I think you are
'Cuz it takes a real man to recognize his fears
Maybe cowardice is my middle name
But courage isn't yours
And it's been ten years since either of us felt this way
You claim you're not, but I think you are
'Cuz it's the tear on either side that breaks a heart
Maybe lover's not your favourite game
Sure as hell isn't mine
But it's been twenty minutes since my mind went grey
I'm not a morning man, are you?
Yeah, it's hard to get up and leave a bed for two
Maybe loyalty's just a royal pain
But to yourself be true
And it's been a decade since we felt close enough to stay
You say I am, and I'd swear you are,
Takes a lot of cash to run one dream that far,
Maybe honesty's not your prerogative,
But a love life isn't mine,
And it's been five hours since we sent the coats and cab away

You were back in town for just one day,
I was putting groceries back in my fridge,
You woke up and made the connection,
Saw my face and swallowed a sigh,
Called it heriosm that I didn't come,
But it's not epic, it just is.
