what do you want?

I don’t hear from you for days
Then you appear back in my life
Wanting me for what you want
And not for what I need

I need you here beside me
To hold me when I’m down
To deal with my emotions
The way I deal with yours

It’s not the way you only want sex
It’s not the way you leave me
It’s not the way you can be so distant
It’s the way you give me hope

I should have left you years ago
Turned away from your temptation
When you disappeared the last time
I shouldn’t have welcomed you back

My head tells me you use me
My heart tells me I need you
My friends say I should leave you
You don’t tell me anything at all

You seem afraid to say the words
To tell me what you feel
You never let me in your head
Or even in your heart

I know a lot about you
I know the way you are
But do I really know you
The man you are inside

Our friends would have a field day
If they new I never let you go
But they don’t know now
And I never think they will

Too many complications
You put into my mind
When I know deep inside me
That all I want is you

But what on earth do you want?
