Jumping Through Hoops

I jump through hoops for my girl She's so hard to love and cherish Can’t seem to find the precious words To make her see I love her so I touch her gently ever careful She thrust me away every time What can I say to make it right? To make her see our love is tight I pray before I speak to her Hoping to help her see I'm right What she thinks is not the truth I only want the best for her I show her sympathy mix with love She takes offense and runs away The pain she feels is much too deep She’s hard to appease when feeling hurt I see her heart breaking down From the pressures of her stress I see her dying here before me She binds my hands behind my back She is so beautiful, soft, and sweet I wish she knew the true I share Behind those eyes, I see she's broken Nothing I do can fix her now I jump through hoops to calm her heart Getting burned by her fire In the end I test the waters, and Love was sweet just like always
