Sweet

I know I may seem tough,

and that I can play rough.

I may seem like I've got one point of view,

but really I can be sweet, too!

I can fight and I can curse,

but I can still find loneliness worse.

I may seem a wisp of apathy,

but really I can be sweet, too!

I can put you down just as much as I could lift you up.

I can take from you as easily as I could give too much.

I could brush your hair out of your eyes and I could hold you close,

and I could sing for you alone when all the lights are low....

I want to be married in a church (not right now, but sometime soon).

I may seem impenetrably hard,

but, really, I can be soft, too.

And I wish I didn't think that you'd be good for me,

or that I'd be good for you.

I may seem to be a sad pessimist,

but, oh, I can dream, too!

I want to be married in a church,

and I wound about my groom.

I may seem impenetrably hard, but really, I can be soft, too.

Mmm..mmmm....
