Wanting
Have you ever loved someone,
Who loves you back, and more?
Have you e'r been treasured by
The one whom you adore?
Have you ever wondered where
You're true love hides, and why?
Though her scent still lingers,
As the sound of her soft sigh....
Perhaps your waiting for the one
Who sets your soul aflame,
With unrequited passion,
With a strange, exotic name.
Or maybe you're just looking for
That small, round, home-grown type-
Who sews, and cleans and makes the beds,
And grows organic rice?
Perhaps your searching for your love,
Upon some distant shore,
(But, even if you find her, love,
You'll keep on searching, more....)
'Cause when it's day you long for night,
At night you crave the sun,
How can you find what's yours, my friend,
When searching's what you want?
No matter what you're looking for,
No matter what's the game,
The characters all come and go,
But some things never change:
It seems you want somebody
Who don't want you, quite the same,
And when you sense her disregard
Your instincts start to "clang",
Your heart begins to flutter,
Thinking " this might be The ONE!"
'Cause something in your little heart
Just needs to run, and run....
'Cause when it's day you long for night,
At night you wait for dawn,
How can you own what's yours, my friend,
When seeking's what you want?
No matter what you're looking for,
No matter what's the game,
The characters all come and go,
But, some things never change.
And so you go around the track,
Finding all the specks of black
In anyone who wants you, and
Who wants to love you back.
And when the search is on, again,
Your know the lines, your on your game,
( While in your heart your kind of mad,
Relieved, frustrated, somewhat sad.)
But , you're worth so much more, yes, you...
Your kind, and wise and funny, too!
And when you find someone like you,
Just hold her tight, and love her true!
'Cause when it's day you long for night,
At night you crave the day,
How can have what's yours, my friend,
When wanting's what you crave?
No matter what you're looking for,
No matter what's the game,
The characters all come and go,
But, some things just don't change...
