Love

what you want is what I want
what I want is what I said to you
when you seemed to listen
I thought you cared
and now you turn away with your passive stare
I gave you my full attention
I thought you wanted my complete devotion
you told me your story, I took it seriously
now I feel I am treading very shakily
on icy ground, I'm slippin around
can't find my feet, can't find my balance
I thought I had it all worked out
I thought you had it all worked out
what do you want now, tell me again
or are you gonna change it up, is that your trend
I'm a good man, a good person I think
and this questioning you do, makes me rethink
who are you, why are you here
right in front of me with all your fear
leave me alone if you're gonna switch gears
I'm in first, I like staying near
to my home, my heart, everything dear
so you can stay or go, but I will be clear
don't treat me like you don't know me
don't try to order me like you own me
don't diss me or try to control me
and I will be your man, your best friend
and I will be yours until the very end
holding you hand and helping to send
happiness, love, and peace again and again.

My love for you will only die with my life,
and even then, my soul will always be your light.
