I have shown up at your door
For a thousand moons or more
Each time last minute you postpone
And I’m left waiting in the cold
Alone, for you to let me in
They say that time will heal all wounds
But this stagnation stings anew
Now my façade is so entrenched
That life is watching from the bench
I can’t walk her down the aisle
Between deceit and misery
She could grab me by the hand to find
She’s miles away from me
She’ll snap that warped corrective lens to see
The man she’s made from three
Could never last the years
Under lover’s scrutiny
