Dumb Enough
Close your eyes and wish to be
The exact spot right next to me
I’m only a writer without a muse
Love that’s been confused with abuse
A stone that sunk before it skipped
A page of words before it’s ripped
A sky full of clouds
The glow of the moon
Loved too much
Way too soon
You hold me in a cage
Instead of your arms
It was stupid, I know,
To fall for your charms
But I did
And I know
That you’ll just let me go
Without saying you love me
It hurts ‘cause it’s true
It hurts because I was dumb enough
To fall in-love with you.
You told me everything would be alright
But that’s not true
Because tonight
Your arms aren’t where they’re supposed to be
They aren’t wrapped around me
You’re like a song I’ve heard before
But just barely remembered
As you walked through that door
You’re my light in the Darkness
My smile in the rain
You’re my kiss in the morning
At the end of the day
But you’ve pushed me away
Taken all I hold dear
But I still keep hoping
That you’ll just appear
And even though I made you laugh
And heard you cry
You’re still telling me goodbye
It was stupid, I know,
To fall for your eyes
But I did and I know
That you’ll still let me go
Without saying you love me
It hurts ‘cause it’s true
It hurts because I was dumb enough
To fall in-love with you.
I need my light in the Darkness
My smile in the rain
My kiss in the morning
And at the end of the day
But you’re gone
And I know
You are letting me go
And all that I know
Is that I was dumb enough
To believe
And to hope
Instead of grieve
All alone
‘Cause prayers didn’t help me get through
Realizing that you would never
Feel the way I do
This hurts because I was dumb enough
To fall in-love with you
