Little Walks and Talks

He promises he won't bite

She wonders if he lies

He says he's not looking for a fight

And she knows that can't be right

Because they've both seen enough 

Because they're both pretty smart 

And they both would never have thought

Of the dangers coming from these little talks

He promises he is open minded

And she wonders if she really is too

He promises that he won't try to convince

And she knows she will not hold back

Because they've both seen enough 

Because they're both pretty smart 

And they both would never have thought

Of the dangers coming from these long walks

He says he just wants to ask something

She knows he not to believe him 

He wonders if she will ever really hear

And she wonders what brings him such fear

Because they've both seen a bit

But neither feels like they can defend it

And they both would never have thought

Of the secrets hidden behind their own locks

He won't try to convince her anymore

And she has also decided to shut her door

And instead they just sit and watch tv 

Choosing comfort over true intimacy 

Because they've seen whats around the bend

And they both know how this tragic tale ends

And neither would have ever thought 

Love harms the lips that remain unlocked
