Number 8

Number 8

I didn’t have the courage to say
What my heart was screaming to say
Not face to face any way
Yet the lies pile up as you scream
It was us against the world
As the piano played
One note at a time
Looking at all or nothing
You called me babe and looked surprised
When you heard the song
I was on a plane
Flying away wishing it was Paris
Ending up at a cottage
On the Canadian Shield
By lake I have never seen
But it the only place I have been able to sleep
In three years
You told me the next day
It was a great a concert
Number 8 on the list is the song
That dropped my heart
Not all just a few words
