I Couldn't Tell You

from in "Love" by The Jet Age

lyrics

You're young and you're beautiful,
and so was she.
But it's not about youth or beauty:
It's the future versus history.
There's me and her,
and now there's you and me.

I couldn't leave her
until there was you.
I couldn't tell you
but we need the truth.

I thought I knew what I wanted
and so did he:
A mother, wife
someone who understood duty.
But the bond became a leash,
and then a noose
and now that I've found you
I'm gonna get loose.
