Glee: The Music presents The Warblers

Sometimes I forget you are broken, sometimes I forget your wires are crossed.
Maybe it’s not what we both were hoping if you count the time we surely lost.
I imagine you can see my weakness. Hope it doesn’t block your point of view.
Think we both can see just what the truth is. It’s not like we didn’t have a clue.
You can see through me, and me through you.

I think you’ve forgotten more about love than I ever have, or hope to know.
When you’re getting in, or even out of - maybe we just need to take it slow.
I believe we still can find solutions - answers to the questions we both sense.
Maybe I’m just wrapped up in confusion. Isn’t that the way it’s always been?
Do we have to do it all again?

Just stop running away. There’s not a lot I can say that you don’t already know..
Just stop running away. You’ve got a place here with me, so baby, don’t go.


Stop Running Away

I don’t pretend to understand, it’s a mystery to me.
I guess it’s in his hands, but it wasn’t s’posed to be this way at all.
Doug, you were a song that God sang every day.
And if it turned out wrong,
What does it have to say about the way we think?
It isn’t wrong to want to live,
But sometimes, life has to give, and you sure gave.

I know it’s selfish of me, but I didn’t know you long.
Only a melody, but we never sang the song with all the words.
The song is incomplete, and when the words don’t meet is it a song at all?

This song I sing for you, Doug, but it won’t begin to heal the pain.
I only know that you, Doug, would love to sing the song again.
The song is not finished, surely another verse will come.
Where is the song?

Instrumental

Music, they say, can calm the savage beast, indeed.
I guess the question is can it calm the beast in me?

This song I sing for you, God, I am weak, but you are oh, so strong.
I only know that you, God, gave us voice to sing out loud and long.
The song is not finished, surely another verse will come.
