Set Up and Starting Again
I was trying to hesitate
From going on a blind date
But my friends took the lead
Saying it's just what I need
My love life's been in a spin
My heart always pulling in
When I saw someone was getting
Way too close I was not letting
My emotions run too wild
I became so weak and mild
Since my life has always been
A trampoline for all the men
That's been bouncing in and out
True love I knew nothing about
Every time I tried to feel
Something so precious and real
They would go and not come back
My heart always felt the smack
Of another door slammed shut
Never knowing why or what
I keep repelling them away
Why can't just one of them stay
Longer than a month or so
With no reason they must go
So when my friends said they knew
Someone faithful and so true
It was hard believing such
A man would not hurt me as much
Like everyone else has done
Always being on the run
My courage and faith was thin
Trying to find love again
But I sat down so politely
But my heart was treading lightly
Hours of talking went by
I was trying not to cry
Hearing him tell tales of
Being left by those he loved
It was like he was my clone
Left so stranded and alone
We just stared and couldn't speak
As tears rolled down both our cheeks
Knowing it was destiny
For both of us here to be
Fixed up with another heart
That's been broken all apart
