Fence Letra

Until you can move along
I'm wondering, wondering where I stand

Could this be your plan?
A blueprint you've drafted and understand
With me just a practical afterthought
Placed at the back of the lot
Could this, could this be your plan?

I am a fence in your backyard
Why is it so hard
And it's hardly love if I can't let you run
Down to the gate, the latch is undone

I'm thinking of the places I've stood
Am I a castle or am I wood
That you'll paint upon
Until it dries and peels on the lawn
I'm thinking, thinking of the places I've stood

Look at all the leaves I've stopped
Am I a line am I a spot
That you'll wish upon
Until I'm downed by wind and rot
Look at, look at all the leaves I've stopped

I am a fence in your backyard
Why is it so hard?
And it's hardly love if I can't let you run
Down to the gate, the latch is undone
And it's far enough if I can't see anyone
Don't make me wait
The latch is undone

All the things I could be in your life
The closest I'll ever get
Fills me with regret and it makes no sense

I am a fence in your backyard
Why is it so hard?
And it's hardly love if I can't let you run
Down to the gate, the latch is undone
And it's far enough if I can't see anyone
Don't make me wait
The latch is undone
