Under the Hedge

Oh, I've been sometimes under your wall
Peeping at all where I'm not welcome
I've seen you one time stumble and fall
But I still love you, you see

I've been five times back to the well
Seeking to tell myself we're something
But you can't teach what you can't sell
And I'm not the only one, it seems

I still would say if you asked, it's built on bonding
But others will take it all and leave you wanting
I know you've done this before to them but here's where it ends and where I stand
You can't hold onto yourself, for I have got your holy head in my hands

And I've been long time out at your wall
Seeking to call you back from over
'Cause when you're up there, you seem so tall
But you're not the only one, you'll see

I still would say if you asked, it's built on bonding
But others will take it all and leave you wanting
I know you've done this before to them but here's where it ends and where I stand
You say you can't hold yourself back, well I have got your sainted head in my hands

And I've been sometimes under your hedge
I ran like a rabbit from the rifles
You had me two times out on the ledge
But I still love you, you see
