Swept Up
When you’re ready I might be gone
You sat on it for days
As you tried to figure a clear way through your haze

She came in and swept me up
Right before you finally asked me what’s up

How was I supposed to know
When and if you’d ever come to me and go

“I’m ready now
I finally seek you now”

It’s nice of you to say
But it could’ve been said another day
Now I’m confused as I head the other way

Sweet conversations that led to nothings
A giddy heart
Left to stumblings
Couldn’t pursue
You wouldn’t let me
Do what I wanted to do
All I wanted was to be with you

You weren’t ready
Now time is well past over due

She came in and swept me up
Right before you finally asked me what’s up

With open eyes
And open arms
I warned you I wouldn’t be alone for too long
It was you with me
That was where we belonged
But that outcome never happened
It was just prolonged
Now I’m sitting with another trying to get along

Too little
Too late
I was brittle
So was our fate
You were confused
Yet always amused
Couldn’t take that leap
Because you couldn’t get over some creep

Now I’m still alone
But she could very well sweep me up
Before you say what’s up

She could exist
Won’t know until time persists
How long will you stay in your misery?
Without me
Contemplating your depression
Ignoring my suggestion

Wanna be with me?
Or stay there in your misery?

You wanted great
But now it might be a little too late

She came in and swept me up
Right before you finally asked me what’s up

Is that what you want to hear?
Or will you draw me near?
Decide already
Don’t shed another tear

What’s up?
Wanna be swept up?
Or will I be left for her?
She’ll be with me?

Guess we’ll have to wait and see…
