As I Was Told Lyrics by Letitia VanSant

Breakfast Truce

0

Well I left the east to embrace the west
I expected applause for my confessions
I can show you how to pirouette as you evolve
If you can show me how to peel this flower off the wall
I like to think that my soul would rise
Up through Minnesota's open skies
Still I'd like to know
Are they as open as I was told
Darling won't you draw the blinds cause
Every morning is a second try
I can show you how to miss someone before they're gone
If you can show me how to fake it all along
I like to think that I could recognize
What's communicated by your eyes
Still I'd like to know
Was this as real as your eyes told me so
I'll conform to what i'm told to
Until you rebel
But if revolutions are our solutions
Only time will tell
Time turns my curves to lines
Questions become my exclamations
I can show you how to know when you've got it figured out
If you can show me how to keep your foot out of your mouth
Every book I ever seem to start
Before I'm done they always fall apart
Still I'd like to know
Was this as worth it as I was told
