Gypsy

She never saw it, no
Chasing herself around
Too blind to see
Too shy to believe
What makes us the same

Oh Gypsy, she said
I will be home very soon
Oh Gypsy, she’s gone
Too afraid to face the truth
Too alone to make the change

But next time is new
And all the same again
If she could see
If she could know
The magic in staying

Oh Gypsy, she said
I know I can do better
Oh Gypsy, she’s gone
Too afraid to face the pain
Too alone to make the change

Legs quaking
Tears welling
So much to bare
Daring to share
Rubbing away layers
Breaking the barriers
Between her and them
And everyone
It can be done

Oh Gypsy, she said
I will be home very soon
Oh Gypsy, she’s gone
Learning to face the truth
Learning to make the change
