Step one you say we need to talk
She shifts her position to the ledge, fingers in her hair, and he looks at her.
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He shifts his weight into a kneeling position on the ledge while looking about.
He smiles politely back at you
She talks about being down with someone special and his response is predictable to her.
You stare politely right on through
She hates the cowl sometimes because it feels like he is looking through her, not at her.
Some sort of window to your right
He lists off his reasons for not pursuing a relationship within the team.
As he goes left and you stay right
She avoids showing too much frustration because she loves and hates him for the logic.
Between the lines of fear and blame
She knows he is using the falter with John and Shayera against her possibly.
And you begin to wonder why you came
Suddenly she does not want to be up here until the thief is seen below.
Where did I go wrong…
The saving glide is to go after this person except it is Circe up to no good as usual.
Somewhere along in the bitterness
Circe's taunts are too close to home especially with Bruce having to see this transformation.
And would I have stayed up with you all night
His behavior after her being turned into a pig is surprising yet Zatanna is right about him.
Had I known how to save a life
She however does not lose the urge to eat because seeing him act like this is making it hard for her to hate him even when he will not continue what happen with that long kiss not so long ago.
Let him know that you know best
She remembers kissing him on the cheek in Gorilla City after the missile buried her.
Cause after all you do know best
She recalls giving it to him full on the lips at that restaurant while on the run from Hawkmen.
Try to slip past his defense
The strain of trying to pry the Black Mercy off him while screaming his name.
Without granting innocence
His admission of what his Mercy fantasy was like seeing those pictures again.
Lay down a list of what is wrong
She recounts telling him to just cry in front of her for once in his life.
The things you've told him all along
He unexpectedly is kissing her with tears in both their eyes at Gotham Cemetery.
And I pray to God he hears you…
She would have almost given anything to always have that moment forever with him.
Once she is back to her human looking self she hears Zatanna humming a song that sounds familiar since she herself had heard it at the Iceberg Lounge as if some kind of passive hint to her about what happen after she in pig form had run off. She also remembers another song she heard not so long ago either.
As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
She confronts him later on wearing that red dress from Paris.
"So what is going to be Bruce?"
"You know why not, I already told you before!"
She pins him and demands the truth. He says she cannot handle it and of course she hits him before demanding it again. He admits his feelings yet he claims how uncertainty to whether or not he can be with her without all the troubles that seem to intersect his life. She hesitates to leave because he still seems unable to resolve his mind and heart. She kisses him again and forces him to acknowledge that she is not going anywhere, not tonight, not any night.
"I'm not leaving because no one else saves my heart," she whispers when he is asleep.
He may feel undeserving, unworthy, or anything number of other things to make her leave him like so many other women have in the past, but she is going to fight because some battles are truly matters of saving hearts, not just saving lives, and she would fight for him and stand up to him whenever the situation arises.
