Tap At My Window

He taps at my window

Willing that I let him in

I don't think I will though

My heart's taken, I won't tell him again.

Maybe I'll write him a story

And maybe I'll fall asleep in his arms.

Maybe I'll wake up lonely and fall unawake again.

And until you calm me down

Race around this town

Trying to find, oh, an emotion you cannot deny.

I will not have him treat me this way.

And Mother, I blame you.

Therein trying to be you again

For I have become you,

And I know every part of the game

And Father, I love you

But how can you watch as I push her away?

I cannot forgive you for bringing me up this way.

Maybe I'll write them a story

And maybe I'll fall asleep in his arms.

Maybe I'll wake up lonely and fall unawake again.

And until you calm me down

I race around this town

Until you cut me down

I race around this town

Trying to find, oh, an emotion you cannot deny

I will not have them treat me this way.

So tap at my window,

Maybe I might let you in.

I don't think I will though,

My heart's taken, I won't tell you again.
