closed doors

22 4 7
                                    

I had given up the dream

about us lasting for eternity

I had closed that door long ago

but you came waltzing back in


about us lasting for eternity

you waxed some poetic lines

hoping I would reconsider but


I had closed that door long ago

doing whatever I had to do

to move on with my life


until you came waltzing back in

knocking down the walls I built

around my vulnerable heart
