From the shelter of your solitude you see her
|
Running circles 'round the emptiness within
|
And you wonder what it's been like to be her
|
As you feel yourself awakening
|
|
Though she fills her life between with new adventure
|
There's confusion in her eyes each time you meet
|
You don't think she's gonna last another winter
|
With all the snow she's rakin' in
|
|
You can't believe you still want her
|
After all these years of knowing her so well
|
All the same you'd willingly consign yourself
|
To a life of hell
|
|
You would think by now you'd see it in perspective
|
She's too insecure to ever really change
|
You've convinced yourself this time you'll be objective
|
You won't need any breakin' in
|
|
There's no reason to believe it will be different
|
She's still playing games and running from herself
|
But you've always thought your love for her could save her
|
And that's how you get taken in
|
|

You Still Want Her
