Enough So Far
okay, so you thought
that it would be a good idea
for me to be with him
and I appreciate your honesty
I’m not used to honesty, you know
I’m used to people trying
to screw me over
and I know I’m a girl
but I have to act like a guy sometimes
so that people don’t try
to make my life tougher
hasn’t it been
tough enough so far?
well, I appreciate your truthfulness
when you’re so used to
not getting the truth from anyone
well, honesty is nice
and I know that when I started to tell you
about what I thought might happen
with me and hin
you kept saying that
he has to be a lucky guy
well, I don’t know if
he understands that, yet
and if he’s supposed
to think everything is great
because he could have me in his life
well, I don’t know if what I can do
for him is enough any of the time
if life was all candy, I might
think that there is hope for me
I would have thought that
hope was an option before, then
I just want to know
if he feels the kind of love
that I feel for him
that it is a kind of love
that doesn’t go away
I want to know
if I should have hope
when you talk, you
give me reason to have hope
and I don’t know if I should
but right now
I’ll take whatever I can get
