Losing You Again
Waiting for you tonight
I thought I’d be all right
I thought I’d held on tight
I thought I’d let go

I got my life on track
I got my aces stacked
Somebody’s got my back
When I start to get low

Back up against the wall
Help me to stand up tall
I’m trying not to crawl
Got to stay on my feet

But I caught your scent again
Wanted to drown in it
Nothing is permanent
Except this defeat

I want you to let me in
But I’m losing you again
Maybe I’ll count to ten
And then you’ll be mine
I thought it was too late
To lose you again to fate
Is it unfortunate
Or is it a crime

To let you leave all alone
Pretend that you’re not my home
Act like we both have grown
And gone our own way

I’d throw it all aside
I’d take you back in stride
Why should I have to hide
What I still have to say?

I want you to let me in
I’m losing you again
I’ve lost a lot since then
But I still have my pride

Who am I trying to kid
With all of these walls I’ve built
Let’s finally be rid
Of what we’ve denied

Washing my ruddy face
I wipe away the traces
Of the love we’ve placed
Off to one side
