She was just
Trying her damnedest
To sound deep;
He was just
Trying his damnedest
To fall asleep.
She wanted to
Impress her man
With her words;
He wanted to
Tell her
Why he hurts.
She thought, "boy,
I can't live
without you."
He thought, "girl,
I hate it
But we're through."
She loved him
And couldn't tell
Him so.
He loved her
Like a sister;
She didn't know.
She was chasing
Him for all
She was worth.
He was chasing
Cars over
Curbs.
She was direct;
He was avoiding;
She was ready
To tell him her story;
He was scared
She wouldn't accept him;
He was tired
Of hiding himself-
-In a closet.
