I’m the reason.

You know I’m not to good at this.

That whole falling for someone thing.

I gotta say I’ve gotten pretty good at building walls.

I try to put myself out there,

But it’s not the same.

I keep shutting down,

Before things even take off.

I’ve met a few ladies who have caught my eye.

Ive made them laugh, blush, and wonder why.

I want to be happy and have some one to hold.

My heart stays guarded

Seems I’m damned to be alone.

Ma’am I hope you can see,

I’m not trying to play games.

I really am working on opening up.

But every time I do it seems I just get stuck.

I’ve met a few ladies who have caught my eye.

Ive made them laugh, blush, and wonder why.

I want to be happy and have some one to hold.

My heart stays guarded

Seems I’m damned to be alone.

So if I ever happen to cross your mind.

No I’m not playing hard to get,

I reckon I just take time.

And I know that’s not fair of me to ask.

Reckon that’s why I know nothing ever lasts.

I’ve met a few ladies who have caught my eye.

My heart stays guarded

Seems I’m damned to be alone.

Lord knows I’m tired,

Of being, alone.
