Notes About The Poem

Inspired by past experiences. published as song poetry.

Just set me free

All I have to do 
to keep loving you 
is to play that game 
like you always do.

You hide your love 
cause you were hurt before,
so you measure our love 
like a game to score.

(Intro ) repeat

All I have to do is look into your eyes, 
See the love you try to hide.
You measure love like a game to score
Just so you won't hurt no more.
 
BRIDGE:
I see how you avoid my kiss
hiding the love you know I miss. 
If thats the way you wanna be,
Just set me free.

Interlude: 

You stood by my side 
till you took me for a ride 
I couldn't have imagined it so,
You told me that you loved me, 
but had other plans 
to walk out and let me go.  

(Repeat bridge) to end
