cannonball

we were born, ready to love.
ready to hold each other up.
but when did i grow so cold?
so cold, and dumb...

my heart has gotten hard.
from defending myself all this time.
i can't even open my arms,
open my eyes to you.

but like a cannonball
through my defenses
you're holding me tonight.
and i'm thinking forever.
i'm thinking forever tonight.
cannonball.

i've tried to write a book all about my life,
but it ended up being all about you.
so thanks for the memories
and thanks for the thoughts.
the pictures turned out great.

and getting here has been a hell of a trip,
it's been a naked trampoline flip.
a little bit hairy, a little bit scary,
but worth it in the end.

[chorus]

love at first sight, or second glance.
i see london and i see france.
i see myself in your pants.
or maybe you're just happy to see me?

cannonball.
