Loose End

We met out on open streets

When we had no place to go

I remember how my heart beat

When you said I love you so

Then little by little

We choked out all the life that out love could hold

No, no

It was like we held a noose

And baby without check

We pulled it a little tighter around our necks

Each one waiting for the other

Darling to say when

Now baby you can leave me tonight on the loose end

We didnt count tomorrows

We took what we had and baby we ran

There was no place for sorrow

Every place we went I held your hand

And when the night closed in

I was sure your kisses told me all I had to know

But oh no

It was like we held a noose

And baby without check

We pulled til it grew tighter around our necks

Each one waiting for the other

Darling to say when

Oh baby you can leave me tonight on the loose end

Our love has fallen around us

Like we said it never would

We saw it happen to all the others

But to us it never would

Well how could something so bad, darling

Come from something that was so good

I dont know

But it was like we held a noose

And baby without check

We pulled til it grew tighter around our necks

Each one waiting for the other

Darling to say when

Oh baby you can leave me tonight on the loose end

On a loose end
