I walked you home most days
to beat the traffic after class
with all my best intentions.
But when the weather changed,
like fine print, you were hard to read.
Blind-folded, eyes wide open,
staring through me.
I never heard the words that were spoken,
with the rumored nights, with the rendezvous.
I never thought the whispers were true ‘til now...
I saw things that I shouldn‘t have tonight, tonight.
I know now what I couldn‘t have,
I‘ve gone too far to turn it back
I‘ve gone too far to turn it back
Followed you home halfway,
over the fence to your backyard,
with all my best intentions.
And through your window frame,
outstretched and lying on your bed,
Blind-folded, eyes wide open,
staring through me.
Uninvited, no one knows
how much I care, how bad you are,
How good we‘d be, but you won‘t let me in
Goodnight I‘m leaving.
I walked you home most days.
