Bait On Your Hook
Some days I feel your bitterness will be the bitter end of me
Some days I know you are the sweetest part of me
Some days I thirst for your love
and getting it only makes it worse
For at all times with or without you
I am constantly filled with the memories of you
It is going to take time, to ride out this tide
in search of a peaceful beach inside
And tomorrow will come finding me still stranded
at your feet
Because despite it all, yours remains the one and only
love I seek
I have told myself one thousand times just let go
and just at the moment, the rope reaches
the very tip of my last finger
Here I come once more throwing you my lifeline
like something you would read in a fairy-tale book
with me dangling like bait on the end of your hook
Some days I feel the music so refine so delicately played
Some days my heart swells with such joy
onlookers passing by smile
as if they know secretly we’ve got it made
Some days my stars are all aligned
Some days every spoken word of yours
says everything kind
Some days in every way you are everything
from which I should run and hide
so at the risk of losing you, I keep it all
hidden inside
I have told myself one thousand times just let go
and just at the moment, the rope reaches
the very tip of my last finger
Here I come once more throwing you my lifeline
like something you would read in a fairy-tale book
with me dangling like bait on the end of your hook
Today I am going to forget about all my yesterdays
If it is unconditional love that holds the key
then unlocking your heart will be all that
I’ll ever need to nourish me
And if it should now rain each and every day
causing all my days to be washed cleanly away
and our memories be the only songs left to play
then right here in this very place in my mind
is where I will forever stay
I have told myself one thousand times just let go
and just at the moment, the rope reaches
the very tip of my last finger
Here I come once more throwing you my lifeline
like something you would read in a fairy-tale book
with me dangling like bait on the end of your hook
