lyrics

Bring it On
Lisa Bastoni and Sean Staples
(c)(P) 2021 Sweet Ondine Music (BMI)/Wesley Park Music (BMI)

Don’t bring me dried up roses
From a long ago bouquet
A casualty of something
That you did or didn’t say
Don’t bring me any stories
Of how the summer burned
Or how the wind would bite
as you felt the seasons turn
Don’t bring me broken china
Shards of shattered glass
All the quiet days you spent
Hoping all of this would pass

There’s a whole lot of things
You’ve been carrying too long
If you want to love me
If you feel that strong
Bring it on

Don’t bring me old love letters
The books you used to read
Dog eared and underlined
A shrine of memory
Don’t bring me faded photos
Slipping out from plastic sheets
Your smiles telling stories
That are always incomplete
Don’t bring me your old toolbox
From underneath the stairs
There’s nothing to change or fix
And nothing to repair

There’s a whole lot of things
You’ve been carrying too long
If you want to love me
If you feel that strong
Bring it on

Old and broken radios
Rusty guitar strings
All those tiny nuts and bolts,
Nails and screws and springs
Wore out coats
Flower pots
Shirts you never wear
Shoelaces
Old suitcases
You can leave ‘em there
You can leave em there

There’s a whole lot of things
You’ve been carrying too long
There’s nothing here but you and me
When all of that is gone
If you want to love me
If you feel that strong
Bring It On
Bring it On
