Your embrace can chase away the rain But there are days we fail to make contact And as you walk away You're dry and unaware I'm soaking in dismay Yeah And under my breath I'm prefacing your name With words I shouldn't say And when I see you next I might act like I don't care But I really wish that you would talk to me But if you wait too long It won't be very nice 'Cause in keeping my heart safe I've surrounded it with ice So you're hit with cold replies I've got a runny nose And something in my eyes I'm so angry and tired of feeling alone And my frustration will rise As I keep missing you Over and over and over and over I could stick with you for my whole life But there are days we fail to make contact I guess I'll spend that time Sharpening my words Yeah I'll make sure they hurt When I throw them back at you Or at anybody else Who gets in my way
