~she has a past too~

Why did you stop her
In the middle of her say
Her heart is still heavy
That pain needs a way.

Yet you focus on words you choose not to hear
It's not about you, it's a loss that was dear.

In your love there's a friendship that needs to be seen
There'll be times when she talks, it's not to be mean.

I've seen it before, his thumbs in the belt
If you never been there, you can't know how it felt
Those cards they were given, hand has been dealt.

So take out your thumbs and open your arms
Listen to her words as you kiss away her tears
It's time to be holding, holding her close
She's there at your side, expressing the most!
