Love You The Right Way
Written by Derrick Thompson
June 4, 2014


Verse1:

Through the looking glass
Looking past fears
This wouldn’t last
Couldn’t pass
All the years you’d spent
Feeling trashed
And you question ya own worth
Hide in ya pride
Through mistrust, learned to hurt
So you’d lie down and cry
Fighting truth
Every doubt inside of you
Screaming crazy
Denying you
The peace of mind
You needed to break free
And fighting that daily
Started thinking that maybe
Happiness was shady
Cause all those dogs had rabies

Bridge
And the aches of that last crash
Still go at ya heart
You set limits to finish sparks
Before they ever start
Stayed at arm’s length
Warned about wanting
Too much
Never knowing who to trust
It disrupted ya comm link
We all fighting failure
Disdain, pain
So we stop and question shelter
Standing in rain
Don’t believe random thoughts
That bombard ya mind sideways
Light can still part the dark
I’m tryna love you the right way
For real

Verse2:

I invite you:
Take a chance
Take my hand close
Initiate the dance
Knowing missteps
Gon’ happen in advance
Breaking plans
We’ll fight discord
Not each other while trying to
Navigate the course
Toward reward
Be reliable
Through phases of discourse
Patience is resource
Be it my mistakes or yours
Some doors can’t be forced
Communication is key
But truth is the source
One accord like we might just
Find real love in spite of
Ourselves

Bridge:
Time and again
We just trying to win
That strategy should always be
We will rise again
How we carry scars
Bury loss
Take rejection very hard
Makes protection
Rely on
Acceptance, a light source
If only to change ya mind
And give hope to ya heart
To evoke all that’s right
And invoke what was lost
To remind you
Beside you, I’ll stand through it all
Cause to love you right
Doesn’t fall for less
It calls for more
Here we are:


Verse3:

In events where I fail you
When friends sit and tell you
Compel you to walk away
From that room in Bellevue
They outside, lookin in
But trying to help you
And focus on negatives
Develop, overwhelm you
If this was easy to do
Believe more people would do it
There are no masters in life
When every one is a student
We’re all too fluent in pain
And look at peace as relief
Yet anything we haven’t fought for
Is not meet to keep

Brdg:

And when it seems it’s all lost
Patience is flown
You regard bridges crossed
And rather be alone
When thoughts in your heart say forgive
And you won’t
When the sound of those pleas don’t reach
They just drone
I hope you discover love was
Never the dream
But a hard fought war for harmony
As a team
To find what it means
We don’t easily migrate
This a lifelong theme
Of trying to love you the right way

For Real!
