Shhhh...

She has been promised perpetual happiness
Of a life-long commitment and faithfulness
Of a hand to hold wherever she goes
Of a kiss to ward off her woes.

But the words are feeble and are not cast in stone
When the storm came in off they were blown
When the ghosts appeared, no one was on the phone
She was abandoned by the only love she's known.

So keep your words, do not let go
Her heart is cold and in you she sees a foe
Let her touch, let her kiss, don't say no
Until she is ready, you cannot force her so.
