I don’t get it, I never seem to understand
Why is it that every time you take my hand
My dependency increases upon your touch
On your kiss your smile and all the things I love so much
I need you to a point where I can’t think
My speech is slurred and I become so weak
All of me is nothing but a part of you
My functioning dependent on the things you do
When was it that I lost myself completely
Was it that first moment or was it subtly
Why is it that I sit and wait for your phone call
Not going out with friends but in a jaded lull
I miss the freedom that singleness could bring
Even through my love I miss the songs I used to sing
The games I used to play and the things that I could do
I seem to have lost so much from simply loving you
Its not that I want all of those things to come back
I just want more of you, a thing I seem to lack
I know that your friends are very dear to you
But you’ve told me many times that your love is true
Maybe it is just my insecurity
That makes me feel as if you’re far away from me
But yet it seems that though I need so much
You are rather careless of my touch
You leave it easily when you are through
Go back to doing other things you have to do
You do not linger that moment when it’s time to leave
You never seem to wear your heart out on your sleeve
I only ask a few more moments of your time
Kiss me a little longer when you say goodbye
Watch my eyes when you watch me drive away
Send your love to me in little special ways
Then I can certainly believe your love is true
And missing us will not deplete my love for you
The extra time will ease my mind when your away
That lingering kiss will help to keep my fears at bay
I know sometimes it seems like a lot for you to do
But the extra effort helps me to keep my total love for you
Let us help our love to grow more every day
Let us build our love more and more in every way
I love you in all ways I love you always
Be mine and be true and continue in love for me
