It Ain't Me

Written By: Jonny Johnson

You wear makeup and bras
Then play naive when I come talk to you
High heels and floral smells
No girl, I’m staying away from you
Catch your breath and breathe a while
You got that edgy rebel kind of style
Listen to the winds cross the sea mile
Girl, I ain’t here to fight you

You lend a hand with a clenched fist
And I just want to depend on you
You make promises with your fingers crossed
And I just want to trust you
You ask too much to have around
Leave in your slippery tie-dye gown
The hurricane winds are homeward bound
Girl, I’ve stood through more
And I could hold you

You're strong, you always were
I never doubted you
But now you’ve cast me as the enemy
And direct my problem towards you
Whatever’s happened to you before
There’s less, I’m sure, than when there was more
I'm glad you've come through my door
But your love’s grown distant,
And mine could touch you

Spend time with me and the other
I won't think less of you
Don't reject or protect your power
And I'll stand strong to harbor you
I need less attention than most
But your affection sure gets me close
To making amends with my ghost
You're clumsy in your new position
But, Girl, I can forgive you
