She Said When I am Gone
She Said When I am Gone So long all you promises that once held me Held me from living the way I wanted to be Every chain that bound my arms before Should be released and binds me no more All the days of doing things one way I no longer am compelled to obey Do it like this, do it like that Was the compelling rant and idle chat Have no need to listen now love’s gone Every new suitor will see my new dawn Nothing like what I used to be I will change everything about me All the clothes that I used to wear Made me look outdated, like I didn’t care Got to show the world I do Once I step out there will be someone new No more boring, starchy love that stays in Evening after evening criticizing a world of sin
When we are locked in commitment we sometimes wish to have a chance to breathe. We may want to see what life is like on the other side, especially if you spent all your life trying to be a “Goodie two shoes.” I think that is the expression. The problem with experimenting is that you might return with paint on your face, smoke in your hair or something less difficult to was away.
