Boomerangs & Seesaws

Whatcha doin' here at this late hour?
 I've put to bed the dreams I'd saved as ours
 And I've been sleeping with the porch light off for a while
 Well, don't be standing out there, it's freezing cold
 But watch your step as you cross this threshold
 'Cause I recall last April had you sold on goodbye
 So I tried
 To let go and when I do you come back
 Tell me I'm the right girl when the time is wrong
 Our love's like boomerangs and seesaws
 And I just can't hang on
 Leave your shoes and all that you've walked through
 At the door, and I'll do the same for you
 Maybe then we'll sit and talk 'til two in the dark
 The irony is it's the scene I'd write
 Every day in May and June, July
 When I still hoped there was a "you and I" in the stars
 It was so hard
 To let go and when I do you come back
 Tell me I'm the right girl when the time is wrong
 Our love's like boomerangs and seesaws
 And I just can't hang on
