Kate Cornwell: Stories of my life

I Will Not Let You

You once broke my heart Shattering it in pieces Never to return

At the end of the day I knew you wanted to stay I will not let you

No one asked me why Why I want to quickly leave Enveloping blues

Drive down country roads With the windows wide open Falling in sweet love

You did not tell me The extent of your lying I wanted nothing

See me for myself Before you took me downtown Will the world collapse

Lies will become truth Exposing everything real Underneath sadness

Did the neighbors call Or was someone else watching Please don’t ask questions

Why didn’t you call When I gave you everything I didn’t ask why

I didn’t ask why But no one told me different I followed you home
