All the time I am talking, I am talking to you, Trying to make it true. I am trying to say, Be sure. Endure. It will be the way you want it. I am remembering when I was wild, too. Secret. Rich. Unknown Except to one friend. Even then alone. I am asking you what you want to be, Asking you what you want of me, Telling you there is nothing in yourself Ever to fear. And wondering if you hear. | |
