lyrics

Safely tucked under wing, running away to bring
them fast and loose, them fast and loose away from abuse.
And where are you going now? When will you find out how
and where to escape, where to escape for everyone’s sake?
There’s no turning the tide, there’s no place to hide,
no place to run, no place to run,
where he won’t come, where he won’t come.
But maybe with time things will change and turn around,
Maybe this time,… maybe,… maybe not.

Why did you ere return, why couldn’t you just learn
that he never changed, he never changed; was always estranged?
Maybe it was your heart, so willing again to start,
and do what was right, so trusting insight, but betrayed every time.
There’s no logic to know of, that forgives unreturned love,
no place to go where he won’t know;
where he won’t show, where he won’t go.
But maybe this time things will change and turn around,
maybe this time,… oh maybe,… but maybe not.

You tried to for, oh so long, to forgive him and all the wrong;
to trust and wait, and wait and wait, with the hope of some change.
What no one else could see, your devotion to family,
so steadfast and strong, and you tried for so long, to right the wrong.
But although the marriage failed, and his ship of compassion sailed,
as it fell apart, as it fell apart,
how it broke your heart, how it broke your heart.
But maybe with time things will change and turn around,
maybe this time,… oh maybe,… and maybe not.

When did you finally know, he would not choose or go
any other way, but his own stubborn way, only his own way?
How did it feel to be, finally safe and free,
from the fear and doubt; the pain and doubt; from what he was about?
Then a time to build again, far and away from where you’d been,
and it’s over and done, no need to run,
it’s over and done, no more on the run.
And maybe with time things will change and turn around,
Maybe this time,… maybe,… maybe so.
