It's Me

Weather came and caught us off our guard

we were just laughing and feelin' alright

had such a great time just last night

we walked into a minefield undetected

you took a tone and I took offense

anger replacing all common sense

Oh run for you life

all tenderness is gone

in the blink of an eye

all good will has withdrawn

and we mark out our paces and

stare out from our faces

but baby you and I are gone gone gone

Incomprehensible layers of isolation

now your the man with a heart of stone

making me pay here by being alone

seemingly justified righteous indignation

now I'm the woman who holds all her pain

looking for somebody else to blame

We hold all the keys to our undoing

cutting me down in small degrees

you know my worst insecurities

I'm making no effort to understand

no one can hurt you like I can

deep down inside the girl's waking up

she's calling out to the boy she loves

It's me

oh baby it's me

how in the world can tenderness be gone

in the blink of an eye

The girl in me she's callin out

oh the girl in me she's callin out

to the boy in you

to the boy in you

Baby come back

baby come back to me
