I want somebody who sees the pointlessness |
|
And still keeps their purpose in mind |
|
I want somebody who has a tortured soul |
|
Some of the time |
|
I want somebody who will either put out for me |
|
Or put me out of misery |
|
Or maybe just put it all to words |
|
And make me say, you know |
|
I never heard it put that way |
|
Make me say, what did you just say? |
|
I want somebody who can hold my interest |
|
Hold it and never let it fall |
|
Someone who can flatten me with a kiss |
|
That hits like a fist |
|
Or a sentence, that stops me like a brick wall |
|
Because if you hear me talking |
|
Listen to what i'm not saying |
|
If you hear me playing guitar |
|
Listen to what i'm not playing |
|
And don't ask me to put words |
|
To all the spaces between notes |
|
In fact if you have to ask, forget it |
|
Do and you'll regret it |
|
I'm tired of being the interesting one |
|
I'm tired of heving fun for two |
|
Just lay yourself on the line |
|
And i might lay myself down by you |
|
But don't sit behind your eyes |
|
And wait for me to surprise you |
|
I want somebody who can make me |
|
Scream until it's funny |
|
Give me a run for my money |
|
I want someone who can |
|
Twist me up in knots |
|
Tell me, for the woman who has everything |
|
What have you got? |
|
I want someone who's not afraid of me |
|
Or anyone else |
|
In other words i want someone |
|
Who's not afraid of themself |
|
Do you think i'm asking too much? |
