I'm gonna turn

and walk away

you can wait

til I am far along

then run and come

and catch my arm

and say you'd die

if I were gone

I want to hear you

call my name

it's too easy

just to say it soft

I don't like my language

watered down

I don't like my edges

rounded off



I can't always wait

for your circumstance to improve

love is loose it

shifts each time you move

go ahead, put my back

against the wall

give it all up

or don't give it to me at all

you never know this could be

our last night

so step back

step back into the light

so I can see your sillouette

I'm not done looking yet



safe the profile for the camera

give me your eye to eye

I know all your secrets

and you know all of mine

mostly I don't go

for the soft focus and the fantasy

I need something real

I can think

and say and see so



I'm going to turn

and walk away

you wait til I am far along

then run and come

and catch my arm

and say you'd die

if I were gone

yes I'm going to turn

and walk away

you can watch me go

or you can make me stay
