So you put your cards on the table
You're here, you're willing and able
Do you really understand the challenge youíve set yourself
You know I want to adore you
Can't believe how life was before you
I must apologise please understand I'm so demanding
Don't need to be cruel
I never felt that with you
Trouble is I'm a danger to myself
Don't wanna push you away
I really want you to stay
Until I figure this out won't you
Please come take me over
Let me leave me for a while
Maybe when I'm older
I'll understand the reason why
Understand the reason why
Every day is here to remind me
That the past is always behind me
Something I could never change but I won't let it hold me back
You arrived just in time
Now I know I'll be fine
I'm not ashamed to say you truly are my inspiration
Don't need to be cruel
I never felt that with you
Trouble is I'm a danger to myself
Don't wanna push you away
I really want you to stay
Until I figure this out won't you
Please come take me over
Let me leave me for a while
And maybe when I'm older
I'll understand the reason why
Understand the reason why
Might not be forever
Baby whatever
We've got today won't you
Please come take me over
Let me leave me for a while
And maybe when I'm older
I'll understand the reason why

Anyone cared for listening to this song? It's so unbelievable simple (Mel C and a piano) and still you can hear her vulnerability in there. She is kind of confused and is just asking for that special guy -I think his boyfriend for 3 years now- to remain by her side, being thankful towards him for the support she's getting, and she's slowly letting her demonds behind.

How great to get a "rate up" after more than 15 years that I wrote that comment. Wow. It's always nice when somebody reads and reacts to what I wrote about a song so long ago. Specially since life has changed so much since then!!

I LOVE the piano in this song. Definitely worth a listen. I think it's about her really wanting to open up to someone but she isn't quite sure how.
