Like a Leaf

It wasn?t worth pretending
I noticed when the movie finished
You caught me watching you

No offence intended
None was taken you were certain
I?m not sure what to believe

Got me shaking like a leaf
You know
I?ve landed on my knees too often
A fact I?m failing to disguise

Another poor distraction
Approaching you more of a fashion
You laugh politely so well

I?ve got a gift collecting
Stories that just aren?t worth telling
And sometimes stretch the truth

Which is what I?ll always do
To hide
A catalogue of non adventure
I do my best to sweep aside

Got me shaking like a leaf
You know
I?ve landed on my knees too often
But not so much that I won?t try

I?ve landed on my knees too often
I?ll dust myself off one more time
