Dana Lyons Tell Me That You Want To Go
The hands that made me happy
Now have turned my heart to stone
A cold and heavy stone
That's pressing out against my ribcage
My eyes are metal magnets
That are dragging on the ground
My shoulders feel the weight
That they are carrying
The winter snow has killed
The red nasturtiums on the lawn
And the garden that we planted
Is plowed under
The cabin we were building
Stands out open in the rain
The music of the summer
Now is gone, gone, gone, gone
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that you need your independence
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that there's something wrong between us
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that you need to know him better
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you're leaving me
It seemed the dance was drifting
It seemed the love was old
It seemed our eyes weren't sparkling
Too much anymore
But what can my heart do
When I am losing my best friend
I take my hands and turn it into stone
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that you need your independence
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that there's something wrong between us
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that you need to know her better
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you're leaving me
I saw you walking down my street
A twinkle in your eye
I thought that you were coming to see me
But now I see the wind has changed
The rain has turned to snow
The music of the summer
Now is gone, gone, gone, gone
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that you need your independence
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that there's something wrong between us
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that you need to know him better
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you're leaving
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that you want to go
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you're leaving me
It's going to take some time
Going to take some time
Going to take some time
It's going to take some time
