Close Call (Afraid to Risk)
Today,
I nearly told You
I wanted You.
I wanted to be with You
I wanted to grow anew
I wanted to be only true
I wanted. . .to wanting You.......................Whew!
Close Call.
Near a given days end----we could be----
And O, how tempting;
But, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
TSK, TSK, TSK,
am I AFRAID TO RISK?
You are not the first and it's not my first time,
So why did You make me feel so frisky?
I want to tell You,
But I feel it's very risky (why?!)!
I try to meet You when I can,
Impromptu bumps in the night
O, how I wish You'd understand:
So infatuated----I took the fall!
Daring to OPEN UP----
I didn't do,
Close Call.
We----
We could be
As far as earth can see
Beyond and beneath the sea
We could be
You and me
But for now----
Close Call.
For now...
