Blueprint

I know a woman who can't be denied

when she says she won't be capsulized

She's got a plan for her perfect man

a blueprint for his shape and size

But she loses her heart if he looks the part

and he tells her all the right lies

I know a woman who's hurting inside

for reasons that she can't surmise

And she wants to be

plucked like some kind of flower

And she wants to be

taken by the man of the hour

Look over here - Someone is falling

in love with you....

You can't engineer - a heart burned to sepia

with designs on you...

There on the beach on a hot mid July

She tries to catch a stranger's eye

From the breaking waves, a returning gaze

from someone that she hopes is kind

Well the water was right and sun so bright

so excited when she dove right in

Then from below she feels the undertow

and her heavy heart won't let swim

And she has to be

plucked from the swirling water

And through salty eyes

she can't see the right man for her.
