I can't afford to lose you now,
But I can't afford to stay,
No matter what you've said to me,
You always made me pay.
...
For anyone who has experienced trouble in finding out who they really are and accepting it.
A little girl sits and cries,
While all the other kids play,
...
Empty Pockets
I can't afford to lose you now,
But I can't afford to stay,
No matter what you've said to me,
You always made me pay.
I can't afford to feel this pain,
It's making my heart sore,
I can't afford to open up,
When your knocking at my door.
I already paid the price,
Of letting you back in,
And now you've brought me down again,
And I feel that I have sinned.
I can't afford to love again,
For I fear you've left me poor,
Not a bit of richness remains in my heart,
I feel I can love no more.
I can't aford to lose you though,
But I can't afford to stay,
No matter what you say to me,
I know I'll always have to pay.
Very lucid, sensitive and encased in practicality! Very well written... all 3! Lovely.
