Kitchen Did you tell him how you slept elsewhere last night You couldn’t stomach coming home this time Too many fears lay behind that kitchen door Too many tears within these walls Did you tell him given time You would have chosen not to be his bride And now you’ve got the nerve to go And baby never come home And when he says he cares for you, just nod And when he says it’s all for you think God had never meant it all this way Nothing that you dreamed of was so grey And it’s the lump that blocks your throat that stops you saying That this is not love, not hate It’s just a patch of land between two gates Did you tell him that your life’s not real estate And it is not up, not down It’s just a patch of scrawny built-on ground Did you tell him what you learned why you have to quit You’ve to play with fire to get that fire lit Did you tell him that your choices are your own Of what to change and what to leave alone There’s nothing wrong with the stuff that’s in your head No matter what he said Did you tell him once you’re packed There’s not a chance of ever coming back And somewhere deep in your soul You’re way on down the road And when he says he cares for you just sigh And when he says he’s lonely too think Why does not a word of this ring true What he says means less and less to you And you’re half way feeling mad and feeling a fool That this is not love, not hate It’s just a patch of land between two gates Did you tell him that your life’s not real estate And it is not up, not down It’s just a patch of scrawny built-on ground Did you tell him what you learned why you have to quit You’ve to play with fire to get that fire lit	Tracks available for download From Pop Happenings Vol 4 1.
