How To Tell Her

Written 1995

Verse 1:
what is this pain I feel 
when did it start and grow
is it just lack of sleep
or part of the baggage we tow

Refrain:
that I don't know is clear
I don't posses the answer
for what we're doing here
and I don't know how to tell her

Verse 2:
what is this dream I hold
when did it start to ache and burn
am I just getting old
or wasting years waiting for my turn 

2nd Refrain:
is this really pain 
or just a justification
for starting it all again 
acting out and accusations

Refrain.

Verse 3:
what is this change in me
I don't recognize these words
thoughts of scattered leaves
which my startled mind disturbs

Refrain.
