Trish,

This lyric reminds me of the sober eyed beauty I courted and married. She was such a loyal person that her dating life was quite painful. Guys would tell her, "Let's just be friends" then take a hike at a break up.

At one point, she thought I was just playing the field also from an unwise comment my little sister made. It was true that before returning to college after breaking up with a girl I had gone with five years that I had said I intended to date a bunch of girls to make up for the half decade I'd been out of circulation. That was before I met Judi, however.

Judi came down to the dorm lobby, looked me in the eye, and said with the greatest passion and sincerity, "Don't ever lie to me." I had no clue what I had done to upset her. I could see she was deeply upset, so I took her over to the empty girls' dorm chapel with the huge picture of Christ standing smiling down up front. It was there with Jesus looking down at us, I first kissed her. On the forehead. (I've branched out considerably since!)

I like it when a lady has the respect for herself that your lyric expresses here. In fact, that is the only sort of lady I'd be interested in.

Good work. Keep writing.
