Can I Explain The Delay?

Emotions, emotions
What do you feel now?

It's been such a long time
How can I explain the delay?
Oh but I crave your intimacy
I always trust implicitly
How can you know if I'm speaking the truth or not?
Can I keep you guessing?

And I always build fences
But sometimes not high enough
In theory there's always problems problems
In practice there are only to be dealt with
How can you know if I'm speaking the truth or not?
Can I keep you guessing?

I always demand fidelity
Preferring not to court catastrophe
Honesty is always more simple in the long run
How can you know if I'm speaking the truth or not?
Do I have to do it this way?
