You said you needed time away from me…
it seems to me we’ve been through this before;
that time we gambled our eternity…
I gave you all I had, you wanted more.I cannot let you go like that again…
we almost lost the tender love we share;
why must we be some faint remember when…
when all we need at all is standing here?
I won’t survive one night with you astray…
I know I ask a lot, but you’re still mine;
you say you love me more and more each day…
how could you when I’m waiting in some line?
Although it seems your need for love is dire…
that doesn’t mean it’s cool to play with fire.
