Can I Hide in You?

I (Andy) wrote this on piano in our old house in Texas. It's a poem about dependance and the need to hide away from the world.  

Can I Hide in You:

 

My mind is a slow and heavy machine

So simply serene, so simply serene

I know it’s too late to explain

The role you play

 

Can I hide in you

Will you keep me safe

Cause my love’s dried up

and blown away, again

 

My heart is a poor and broken display

It surrendered its colors and faded to grey

I know it’s too late to explain

The price I pay
