Red Rover

My open heart
I shared it with ya,
I dropped my guard
You took a picture.
But just incase
It didn't suit you,
You kept another, other
In the bedroom.
Red, red rover
Send someone over
To satisfy your appetite for games.
The current's deep,
The water's colder
And it weighs heavy,
Heavy on your shoulders.
But no mermaid,
No hidden treasure
Could you find you peace
Or bring you pleasure.
Red, red rover
Send someone over
To satisfy our appetite for games.
Do we struggle now to speak
With words exploding at our feet
Another black box to discard
Another empty greetings card.
Do we struggle now to sleep
With all the knots tied in our sheets
Will the truth just pass us by
Or do we learn to let it lie.
Red, red rover
Send someone over
To satisfy your appetite for games.
Red, red rover
Send someone over
To satisfy your appetite...
So now I see
What I've been missing,
An open heart
To let the light in.
