[hometext] => I can't bear to just sit back and watch you get hurt.
[bodytext] => It's like a horrible car accident That I can't bear to see. But I also can't look away Even though it also hurts me. I want to ease your pain And wipe your tears away But knowing you'll be hurt tomorrow Won't let me help today You've told me all about This new guy in your life, And I try to encourage you away From all that potential strife. Herein lies my problem, How can I warn you of what I see? How can I tell you to avoid him Without telling you to come to me? You've told me in no uncertain terms You're comfortable with me And as long as I'm not pursuing you That's the way that it'll be. You mentioned, much to my chagrin, About your history of horrible men. I'd like nothing more than to be with you And to try to keep you from hurting again.
