A Part Of Me
by Dean Wilson
THERE’S A PART OF ME THAT MISSES YOU,
A PART OF ME STILL WANTS TO BE TRUE,
BUT, AS TIME GOES ON, THE LONGING FADES,
AND IT GROWS SMALLER TOO,
THIS PART OF ME THAT’S MISSING YOU.
THERE’S A PART OF ME YOU CANNOT OWN,
A PART OF ME YOU’D NEVER LEAVE ALONE.
I DIDN’T LET YOU KNOW IT’S BURIED
DEEP WITHIN MY BONES,
THIS PART OF ME YOU CANNOT OWN.
WHEN THE TIME WAS RIGHT,
YOU KNOW I MIGHT HAVE SHARED WITH YOU
SECRETS I DON’T EVEN KNOW MYSELF.
THEN ONE NIGHT, DEAD TO RIGHTS
YOU DARED ME TO MAKE A BREAK, AND
ESCAPE MY LONESOME CELL.
THERE’S A PART OF ME I DO NOT SHOW,
A PART OF ME YOU’LL NEVER, EVER KNOW.
I SHOULD TURN IT INSIDE OUT,
BUT I CAN’T LET IT GO,
THIS PART OF ME I DO NOT SHOW,
THIS PART OF ME YOU’LL NEVER KNOW,
THIS PART OF ME I DO NOT SHOW.
