And he looks at me in wonder And he looks at me in fear His pride and stony tears
I can see his fortress strong Does he ever find the answers In the cars as they go by Does he ever want to ask me why
And he's seen with all the women Who think that he's a god And he blesses whom he pleases Holding fast to the facade I want to reach out and believe him Through his miles and miles of pain But lately when I touch him
And he speaks to me of business When I ask him how he's been Never getting under the skin Can he make a new beginning Or will he only let it die More from Melissa Etheridge
