The longest mile

With a rubber-band around my waist,
I edge away,
I edge away.
Flat-footed steps with little haste,
I wanna stay,
I wanna stay.
I trail my heart across the floor.
I had her smile, but I wanted more.
And I never got to say those words.
She was never mine, but I was hers.
And I wanna stay,
I wanna stay,
but edge away.
I edge away.
