One step forward and two steps back
In the never ending relationship dance
A Man and a Woman with faults to be sure
Learn no one is perfect by keeping score

How do you know what each of you want
When one is certain the other is not?
Indecision only causes heartache
By pushing love away til it breaks

Communication is the key
Honest and open is the way to be
Although at times you fear being true
To the one special person made for you

Hurt before and thought it was perfect
At the end of it all it wasn't worth it
Everyone is not the same you see
Deserving respect, not blame...like me

Your ex is the problem you must face
Whatever they did to cause your disgrace
Release the anger that holds your heart
Look to the future and a fresh start

You will recognize your true love then
When you live to be eighty
And can still call them friend
