Land Mines

There are certain things I know as true
Like red wine, night drives, and you
But I don't want to be drunk and I don't need a ride
And I'm making up reasons to push you aside

I'm a rocket with no ground to land on
And you're a centered Joni Mitchell song
Now you're alone on the land that you built for me
Because our puzzle pieces fit too perfectly

Tell me mother, how do I know that this won't end up the way it has before?
There have been land mines in holy ground
So why would I ever trust someone new now?

You would never hurt me the way they did
But I can't get the idea out of my head
You're doing everything I want you to do
And I still can't let myself love you

Tell me mother, how do I know that this won't end up the way it has before?
Tell me mother, how do I know that this won't end up the way it has before?
There have been land mines in holy ground
So why would I ever trust someone new now?
