Seven Lives and One Love

The cat had given six of his seven lives

For just one life with her

And when she turned him down

The cat almost collapsed

And luckily the curious cat

Finally thought of something

Oh, the lessons in his eyes

Pouring out secrets in disguise

Treading softly, hearts collide

Wondering if love's worth the try

I gave six of my seven lives

And I have no regrets

I kept one life

And I have no regrets

The cat with his last life

At last he began to live

For the first time he felt real

Living his last life for real

Touching edges of his soul

Breaking free from what he ‘know’

Fighting fears he used to hold

Finding strength to make love grow

I gave six of my seven lives

And I have no regrets

I got one life left

And I have no regrets

Sometimes he remembers her

And how selfish he was

Changing their lives

Without asking the woman first

Each one's life

And the decision of who to be next to

I gave life, she teaches me
