Duty Calls

We’re growing up, aren’t we?

Big decisions are showing up, aren’t they?

And while in the middle of it all, the thought of losing you stands tall

I have an ounce of hope

Should I bounce or should I cope?

Life is tough but you make me float

This insecure little girl has started to gloat

I’ve come a long way and so have you

I wouldn’t have known peace if not for us two.

I discard them like old clothes but for you, I stop and think

However rough may it be, come join me for a drink

We knew it was going to get tough right?

But if anyone, it’s us who can take this fight.

So what I mean to say is, it’s okay if it’s dark

We don’t see a path ahead, so let’s embrace each step of the walk

And we won’t even realize how quickly we’ll be there

Our paths may separate, but I’ll forever be here.

And we might make up silly scenarios but we’ll end up just fine

My father has always told me nothing comes before due time

 It might be hard and be the first rock in a long line

 but I promise you love, I will fight to make you mine.

So go do what you gotta do, duty calls 

Do your time living stories, I will wait here for the dates to the mall 

We started with the Dreamhouse and we’ll end up building it

We are more than lovers, our heads and hearts both fit.
