I want to be in love
So country songs
Don't make me cry,
I want love songs
To make me smile,
Tunes of affirmation
To fill me with hope
Instead of the dread.
The dread
Of the hopelessness
Of my feelings
Of love
Where did it go?
Wished away
In a minute
Of decisions
Not shared by me...
These songs
They keep playing
In my mind
I keep hearing.
Country songs
Still
Make me cry
Love songs
Now
Make me long
And affirmation
Jeez...
A cheesy bid
For the buck...
Yet...
As soon
As that
Love light
Shines
As soon
As that
Heart soars,
I'll be back
Pulled into the sentiment
Of Momma, truck, and wife
Pulled into the emotion
Of new found love
And reaffirmed
By life's true meaning
Country songs
Won't make me cry
Love songs
Will be sung for me
And dread
Will be dead...
Yet...
Country songs still might make me cry...
