"Anthony"....part II

"Anthony, Anthony,
Oh he says he can't love me, but I think he can.
Yes I think he can, and I told him that...just before he ran, just before he ran."
......but then he looked back, yes, he looked back
and decided that he does want what I have
and what I am.
Anthony, Anthony,
Oh I think he might love me.
Anthony.

I should've started running a long, long time ago...

"Now that it's all said and done,
I can't believe you were the one
to build me up and tear me down
like an old abandoned house.
What you said when you left
just left me cold and out of breath.
I fell too far, was in way too deep.
Guess I let you get the best of me.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
a long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
more than you know, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure,
I guess it's really over,
I'm finally getting better
and now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
putting my heart back together.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.

You took a hammer to these walls,
dragged the memories down the hall,
packed your bags and walked away.
There was nothing I could say.
And when you slammed the front door shut,
A lot of others opened up,
so did my eyes so I could see
that you never were the best for me.

Well, I never saw it coming,
I should've started running
a long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
more than you know, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure,
I guess it's really over,
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
putting my heart back together.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through
I got over you."

Oh me of little faith

"What will be left when I've drawn my last breath,
besides the folks I've met and the folks that know me?
Will I discover a soul-saving love or
just the dirt above and below me?
I'm a doubting Thomas, I took a promise, but I do not feel safe.
Oh me of little faith.

Sometimes I pray for a slap in the face,
then I beg to be spared 'cause I'm a coward.
If there's a master of death, I bet he's holding his breath
'cause I show the blind and tell the deaf about his power.
I'm a doubting Thomas, I can't keep my promises 'cause I don't know what's safe.
Oh me of little faith.

Can I be used to help others find truth,
when I'm scared I'll find proof that it's a lie?
Can I be led down a trail dropping breadcrumbs
that prove I'm not ready to die?

Please give me time to decipher the signs,
please forgive me for time that I've wasted.
I'm a doubting Thomas, I'll take your promise, though I know nothings safe.
Oh me of little faith.
Oh me of little faith."

"Anthony"

Anthony, Anthony,
Oh he says he can't love me, but I think he can.
Yes I think he can, and I told him that....just before he ran, just before he ran.
And he's not looking back, he's not looking back
'Cause he doesn't want anything I have
Or anything I am.
Anthony, Anthony,
Oh he says he can't love me.
Anthony.

Somebody more like you

"I didn't hear you say you're sorry, the fault must be mine.
I wish you all the best of luck at finding somebody more like you
You said you'd love me always, truly, I must have changed
'Cause you don't need me like you used to,
I hope you find somebody more like you.
I hope finally find someone, someone that you trust and give her everything.
I hope meet someone your height, so you can see eye to eye, with someone as small as you.
You came out of nowhere and made me smile, then tore me in two
Saying we're very different people, so dear, I hope you find somebody more like you.
I hope you find somebody more like you."
