Living in a Line

It's been many a moon since we had our last fight
She said it would take some time for her to feel all right
And yes, the word forgiveness is a long one to say
But it only takes a moment to choose that way

Oh my friend and oh my lover
Oh myself and oh my mother
We owe it to ourselves and each other
This to know

We are living in a line that points one way
Many points of view but you and I
Must get it through that in every game we play
Time will win the day

With this in mind I resolve to be kind when push meets shove
But isn't blinder to beat around the bush when it comes to love?
I know the shortest distance between us is a very straight line
And doodling a fullish circle I’m alone most of the time

Circle as if I had no end
As if I'd be back to this point again
Hands in a face will erase my face
Try as I might to trace

Anything but this line that points one way
Many points of view but you and I
Must get it through that in every game we play
Time will win the day

Mama, sing me "Now or Never"
As we dance around the floor together
Before I get too heavy for your arms

We are living these lines that point the way
(Sing me "Now or Never")
Many voices raise
But one chance to say
A chance as deep as the passing day
(Tomorrow will be too late)
