Fine, you're finally here
It's taken a while
It's still not clear
If you mean it for real

Can you carefully form
The words you say
I'll take some notes
Just sign your name

Before you get lost outside in the dark – let me protect you now
Before you get trapped here once and for all – I'll shed my light on the path
Before you grow tired of carrying the weight – the mere weight of being alone
It's only you and me on our own
(I'm pleased to meet you)

So stay and feel no fear
Or less than once
My trust in you
Didn't cease because of a few

Bites of that certain fruit
It'll soon turn sour
Lay down your pride
Insightful we are

Before you get lost outside in the dark – let me protect you now
Before you get trapped here once and for all – I'll shed my light on the path
Before you grow tired of carrying the weight – the mere weight of being alone
It's only you and me after all
