illustration: FROM OUT OF THE FLOCK

MIDFLIGHT I was open for so long right from the start I showed you all I told you I was falling flying falling flying waiting on your words to guide me I stopped myself somewhere in midflight thinking I must have been crazy to ever begin this game of love and hesitate hearts can never bend once they start to break and i swore I'd never be the one to fall apart or pretend and here I am just missing you again. I got so tired of waiting and trying to read your mind like some tourist in your heart standin in a room of fools who only came to care for you but never could find the exit door after the tour was through. I said You know I'd love to stick around a while but baby not like this and didn't I try to treat you best

Did I seem like all the rest when you had me there and we had it all was there too much to be said. You never could give a promise to hold on to I never knew what was on your mind Spending all your time disguising the feelings you failed to hide or are the words you found better left behind Was there love somewhere inside. I was so afraid you didn't care or so afraid I did I never wanted to fall that far never wanted to see what was happening to me but I walked in anyway I showed you all I told you I was falling flying falling flying stumbling through midflight until I tumbled right out of your life still hoping your words might come and save me I guess we blew it baby Ain't that just the way love's suppose to be.
