A Shot of Whiskey (Changed My Mind)

You told me what was on your mind
I said what I needed was a little more time
You were willing to give me some space
So I went down to an old familiar place
I meant to stop and think things over
Since you scared me with images of forever
You said you wanted something more
Than to feel like just another score
So I ordered up a shot of Jack
Just one drink before leaving and never looking back
I wasn't ready for what you asked of me
I thought I needed to run away
From your love, it's so strong
But I realised that I was wrong
I thought about leaving you behind
But a shot of whiskey changed my mind
I never even touched the glass
Just threw down some money and said thanks
To the old barkeep with the knowing smile
I drove back across the miles
Rushing back to your warm embrace
I know now that I belong in this place
You're the one my heart desires
The one that sets my soul on fire
I thought I wasn't the marrying kind
But a shot of whiskey changed my mind

A Reach beyond My Grasp

I see you out with him
He's showing you off again
Everyone believes the smiles you give are for him
But I can see past the facade
Through to the pain inside
You think no one knows the truth
That they all buy into your lie
But I can see it in your eyes
All the hurt he's caused
And the tears you try to hide
I know how you cry
When he leaves you all alone
If only you'd let me into your world
I could make you so happy
Bring joy back into your life
Then your smile would be genuine
And there'd be no need for you to put on an act
He breaks your heart
Time and again
And it kills me to know it
I hear your sobs through a wall
I want to hold you close
And dry your tears
Protect you from your fears
But if I reach out to you
He'll be angry, jealous, and cruel
Causing you pain is
Something I could never do
So as long as you stay with him
For me you will remain
A reach beyond my grasp
