The Problem with Romance
A Four Suit Theory of Relationships

Sacred are the things that last
But you come on so hard and fast I cry.
Sacred things are meant to be
But you won’t put your claim on me so I
Belong to myself.
And the claim of
The life that I have known.
Please don’t let me go there.
Please don’t let me go back to the
Claim of the life that I have known.
Please don’t let me go there
Please don’t let me go.
You come on so fast and dark
Leave just when you’ve had enough
I lie- cloud in my mind.
Sacred things are meant to be
But you won’t put your claim on me and why?
There’s a woman you love
And the claim of
The life that I have known
Please don’t let me go there.
Please don’t let me go back to the
Claim of the life that I have known
Please don’t let me go there
Please don’t let me go back to the
Claim of the life that I have known
Please don’t let me go there
Please don’t let me go.
Claims appear on every street
The ripples where the rivers meet thats life.
Climb their way up every wall
They do whatever’s wanted to survive.
Pick your phone up with your ring
You leave like its not anything but why?
There’s a woman you love.
Through the alleyways I creep
A cloud of smoke when people sleep
And I belong to myself.
And the claim of the life that I have known
Please don’t let me go there
Please don’t let me go back to the
Claim of the life that I have known.
Please don’t let me go there
Please don’t let me go.
Walk away and don’t turn back I told you.
There’s no home for you here.
There’s no home for you here.
Look at me with big brown eyes but no dear.
There’s no home for you here.
There’s no home for you here.
Oh and please do not cry.
For I treated you kind.
Like a king I walked by you
And I showed you the sky.
Walk on to the next green hill then go dear.
This is your time to fly.
This is your time to fly.
Don’t hold onto me and please don’t cry now.
For I treated you kind.
Always treated you kind.
Now you’ll go your own way
And it won’t be so hard.
All the things that I gave you
Will keep you safe and warm.
Didn’t I calm the storm
Like a fire safe and warm?
Wrap you up in my robes
Don’t repay me now with tears that its your time to go.
Don’t hold onto me and please don’t cry now.
Didn’t I treat you right?
Always treated you right.
Wasn’t I your wall against the cold dear
When you hid from the night?
You were scared of the night.
Oh and you’ll be okay
You’ll make friends with the cold.
Won’t need no one to claim you
Won’t need nobody’s soul.
Didn’t I calm the storm
Like a fire safe and warm?
Wrap you up in my robes
Don’t repay me now with tears that it’s your time to go.
Pin me down, feed me grapes
Lay your shirt upon my face
So easy to love
Pin me down beneath your shoe
You have better things to do
So easy to fall
And you say
That I’m easy to love
And you say
That you’ll always be the one who I can run to
You have better things to do than lie
I have better things to do than cry
In the dark, meet you there
Run your fingers through my hair
So easy to fall
From the dark to the dawn
Make me feel like love will just go on
So easy to crawl
And you say
That I’m easy to love
And you say
That you’ll always be the one who I can run to
You have better things to do than lie
I have better things to do than cry
Had your money on my mind
It doesn’t matter if he’s kind
You close your eyes and let it roll away
Meet you at a new location
In between the conversation
Something makes me feel like I’m okay
Cause you say
That I’m easy to love
So I’ll try
To be easy to love
And I’ll try
To never need nobody I can run to cause
You have better things to do than lie
I have better things to do than cry
