Be who you are and say what you feel because those that mind don't matter, and those that matter don't mind. -dr. seuss


I've been on this road before
Following this map
But now I'm trying to find
A different destination
There's a stop sign
Let me catch my breath
Let me stop and smell the roses
Let me ponder for a moment
Is it true what you say?

You're not the first,
Most likely not the last,
To hold me close
And say forever
You're not the first,
And you won't be the last,
Person to say
I'll never hurt you
Baby, all I want is the truth

You say you've never felt this way
About any other girl
And when I'm with you
My whole world starts to swirl
I feel like I've been swept out to sea
Drowning, when you're not with me
Your loving words warm my heart
But any lie would rip it apart

You're not the first,
And you won't be the last,
To hold me close and say
Everything will be ok
You're not the first,
And you're definitly not the last,
Person to say
I'll always be here
Baby, all i want is the truth
