ABOUT LOVE'S DOWNSIDE: A song about falling out of love, assuming responsibility for one's own feelings, without imposing blame or animosity on the other. Love is, irrespective of one's choice to be in it or not. A composite, about no one in particular.
She knows what I need
She knows who I am
I go to her a lion
I come away a lamb
But I'm seein' things an' sayin' things
She doesn't understand
REFRAIN
I'm growin' away
I'm not sure where for
I don't love her any less
I just don't love her any more
She knows why I laugh
She knows why I love
I go to her a phoenix
I come away a dove
I just need time to get behind
The things I'm thinkin' of
REFRAIN
I'm growin' away
I'm not sure where for
I don't love her any less
I just don't love her any more
She knows where I go
She knows where I've been
I go to her a lover
I come away a friend
I've walked out of her life
Before I'd even gotten in
REFRAIN
I'm growin’ away
I'm not sure where for
I don't love her any less
I just don't love her any more |
