Honey, you were good for me
But I can't deny
My need to be free grows
I resigned myself to climb the stairs
To your winning thighsAnd endless prayers alone
My new found confidence you hate
Everything put down to fate
Nothing less or moreIt's a marathon and not a sprint
That's what we said before we quit
Love should grow, should boastI feel I'm doing time
With someone not on my side
A mystery divide brings me close
To who I love the mostA friend from the capital came to visit
Will she comfort me
Or does she want to gossip, who knows?I'll take these troubles to the park
I won't come home until after dark
No one will know except you of courseI'll go swimming and ride a bike
Maybe turn into someone that you'd likeIt's a marathon and not a sprint
That's what we said before we quit
Love should grow, should boast
