Roundabout Of Love

"I'm seeing other people"
She said with defiant eyes
Those kind of eyes that could tell no lies
There was no hidden joke
No background disguise
It took me awhile to take it in and realize
Back out of the room I'm stuttering
Walk around downtown muttering
They think i'm crazy
Can't help but agree, reality getting hazy
Can't seperate want from need
To let it all go, or succumb to the greed
Officer stops me saying "You look like you've walked a hard road"
I looked at him and said "I've scuffed these shoes on the roundabout of love and back"
"And if you don't mind me saying sir, so have you, so have we all, so join me for a cold beer and snack"
There were no calls that night
No hearts broken
But the sirens always ring in the distance
Mothers of the sons hold their hearts in hand
And pray the night brings their boys back.
From the roundabout of love
