But Then Again...

We've had peaceful nights

Without any fights

Maybe what you did was right

But then again...

What if you were wrong?



Birds have flown

And We should have known

Our love could have grown

But then again...

Who ever said it isn't right now?



I've been having fun

Though I have not run

Do not tell me that you've won

But then again...

This was never a race in the first place



I'll still give you shelter

Give you breath

Take those worries right off your chest

But then again...

I can fade away for you



Don't let me be a burden

To your happy life plan

Or your wanting to have fun

But then again...

Who said I wouldn't let you go away...if only for a day



I know I put stress onto your shoulders

I tried so hard to make it work

I only expected you to give me as much

But then again...

We've been a little out of touch...as of lately



I may have said some things wrong

I may have fallen

Not proved to be strong

But then again...

Even giants have their bad days



If love is what put us here in the first place

It'll take more to knock us down

Don't let me drown

But then again...

When did drowning in my own tears is always better then yours



If you tell me now that you are happy

Happy without me around

Then let me drown

But then again...

Nothing can really take me back on dry land...except your hand



Tonight it is storming

Clouds hovering overhead

No time now to see another shooting star

But then again...

I already saw a few for you and tomorrow is looking clearer



Time now to fall asleep

Hearing thunder over my sobbing weeps

Praying for a better life for you

But then again...

Should I be praying for me too?

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wasn't planning on writing another one for a while...but it came to my head through my heart so I had to write it.  I hate to sound like I am begging for you back, so sorry if I do.  I am just feeling sad and a lone right now, tomorrow when I wake up, it'll be a new day again to make things right for myself...and her. I didn't think of her much today, but it'll never be enough to make me let her walk away again.
