You make it fun to be weak
When I go to you
We can be serious with a smile
The love behind our eyes won’t peak
When it’s only for fun
We give what we need
But it’s just for now
We won’t end as one
Maybe you’re right
That I’m weak for doing this
But that’s just the price I pay
For holding on and loving
Even when it hurts
But that’s only a side effect
You’re what my life prescribes
To keep my head on straight
As I laugh at this beautiful mess
Picking the pieces to build
I’ve found my head tends to float
And a dose of you points me straight again
I ask and you show me
How to stay aboard the boat
Introspection leads to understanding
But can go way deep time and again
And I need a way back before long
To sustain relationship, a lonesome head withstanding
With you in my system I can go
Venturing into myself not alone
My crutch keeps me from the traps
And the good helps the fruit sow
Maybe you’re right
That I’m weak for doing this
But that’s just the price I pay
For holding on and loving
Even when it hurts
But that’s only a side effect
You’re what my life prescribes
To keep my head on straight
As I laugh at this beautiful mess
Picking the pieces to build
Like champagne on a special day
I use you to celebrate my ways
The good will pull through to win
The mistakes bring closer my say
I put my best foot forward
But not too far or I’ll trip
I still stumble, but I adjust
Knowing what to move toward
So together we clink our flutes
And sip the bubbles from life
We share the joys rising up and salute the bad
As we dance to the music from the lutes
Maybe you’re right
That I’m weak for doing this
But that’s just the price I pay
For holding on and loving
Even when it hurts
But that’s only a side effect
You’re what my life prescribes
To keep my head on straight
As I laugh at this beautiful mess
Picking the pieces to build
