Assurance

I've seen the way you look at me
I've seen you waiting patiently
I'm fine... well, I lied

If what we are is feeling low
I'd fear this if I had a soul
But you're still mine

I was afraid of being chained
I thought a woman who could mend and bend
Would learn my deepest depths and thoughts

And it's just one more round, one more
One more round and I'm done

But you need assurance that everything's gonna be fine
Coz you're just a woman who's everything good in my life
And though we've been over, weeping over
Our last goodbyes
Well I learned to live with these fatal gifts
And still you're mine
So I'm yours

And so I wrote you this song
But you won't sing along to me
Sing la dan da do da la dai-ee-i-ee-ay
La dan da do da la dai-ee-i-ee-ay-ee-ay-ee-ayay

The memories that used to be
Are carved into a sweet gum tree
Outside my place
Where I touched your face
And it was..

One more round, one more
One more round, than I'd loved.

So you need assurance that everything's gonna be fine
Coz you're just the woman who's everything good in my life
And though we've been over, weeping over
Our last goodbyes
I've learned to live with these fatal gifts
And still your mine
So I...

So I wrote you this song
But you won't sing along to me
To sing la dan da do da la dai-ee-i-ee-ay
La dan da do da la dai-ee-i-ee-ay-ee-ay-ee-ayay
