Don't Get Me Started

(álbum: Fellow Travelers - 1989)

Well, thank you for asking, I know you mean well
But friend, that's a story I'd rather not tell
To even begin it would take all night long
And I'd still be right here and she'd still be gone

So don't get me started, I might never stop
She's just not a subject that's easy to drop
There's dozens of other stories I'll swap
But don't get me started on her, I might never stop

You see, deep inside my heart is a dam I have built
For a river of tears over love I have spilled
And the way I make certain that dam will not break
Is to never look back when I've made a mistake

So don't get me started, I might never stop
The heaviest rainfall begins with one drop
There's dozens of other stories I'll swap
But don't get me started on her, I might never stop

Out of sight, oh, out of mind
Out of mind, out of heart

So don't get me started, I might never stop
She's just not a subject I'm able to drop
There's dozens of other stories I'll swap
But don't get me started on her, I might never stop
