She said she's leaving with him to Arizona A married man with 4 children at home I tell her I don't judge her I tell her life's an adventure I tell her to grab it while you can. I am not selfish, nor hypocritical I am a rock, go ahead And break yourself against me And then leave. I'll still be here to pick up the pieces when you get back. She said she's leaving for school in San Diego With her boyfriend, the fireman He does love her, I can see it in his eyes I write letters of recommendation for her; good ones I tell her to grab it while you can. I am not selfish, nor hypocritical I am a rock, go ahead And break yourself against me And then leave I'll still be here to pick up where we left off someday. He said he's going back to Iraq, my lover Despite the inside investigations and interrogations I will become your advocate, and fight for your good name While you make plans to deploy, and go again To a war that turns its back on you at every turn. I am not selfish, nor hypocritical I am a rock, go ahead and break yourself against me And then leave. I will still be here. I will still be here; just come back. |
