Walls

La La La…
When I saw you, I thought I knew you.
But that’s too easy for me.
Just a glass of red wine,
is like a key to the inside,
you can run but you can’t hide.
I don’t wanna say no more, no more.
I just can’t tell you I love you.
It’s gonna take some time.
I’ve built these walls all around me.
Let’s see if you can climb.
And I don’t, I don’t know why they’re so high.
But I can’t tell you I love you.
Please don’t touch me.
Please don’t judge me.
Just go easy on me.
But my confession is that I want you.
Maybe that can launch you over to the other side.
I used to be the kind who just surrendered.
But I learned love is never real for the pretenders,
and I’m no pretender.
