You Get What You Ask For
Don't fall in love yet you tell me
And I won't
Because I do as I'm told
And time will drift us apart
It won't even hurt me
I won't feel anything
It will bother you in the end
That I did as you asked
Sometimes you will think about me.
But I won't think about you
Because I'm not supposed to
I could have.
I could have felt.
I could have given more.
But I just give a small part
A glimpse
A look
A moment.
A temporary comfort.
Because it's what you wanted
And you will never wish
Or want
Because you will never know
What you truly had
Blinded by your own rules
By your need for distance
Well you have it now all the distance you want. Enjoy
And I won't
Because I do as I'm told
And time will drift us apart
It won't even hurt me
I won't feel anything
It will bother you in the end
That I did as you asked
Sometimes you will think about me.
But I won't think about you
Because I'm not supposed to
I could have.
I could have felt.
I could have given more.
But I just give a small part
A glimpse
A look
A moment.
A temporary comfort.
Because it's what you wanted
And you will never wish
Or want
Because you will never know
What you truly had
Blinded by your own rules
By your need for distance
Well you have it now all the distance you want. Enjoy
