Who do I love?
Is it you, the beautiful wide eyed wonder,
The witchy woman whose spell I am under?
Is it that you truly are all that I think you to be,
Or is that I simply think that so that I can be free?
Is it all these amazing things that I see about and in you,
Those crazy words you say, those crazy things that you do?
There's not a doubt I want you baby, dear god I truly do.
But it's damn hard to want someone who does not want you.
Do I lie to myself when I hope and say you are just an ideal,
That it's really just tidbits of scrap with them I make a meal.
A few of the right ingredients that I fill in the rest,
At those times I wonder if I am just making a mess.
Me the little baker, in the kitchen stirring up toil and trouble,
I think I need you just a little bit, but then I make it double.
There's not a doubt that I want you baby, I swear I truly do,
But it's also damn safe to want someone who does not want you.
Is it you that I want? Is it truly you that I whisper to in my dreams,
Or is it that you are just someone and this really isn't what it seems.
Are you a figment, a placeholder, a face to give to my own desire,
That it's the idea of the passion and not you, that sets my heart afire.
That you are just a name that I want to give my heart to,
Someone who is just here, and that this love isn't that true.
There's no doubt I want someone, no doubt I want you too,
It's not that unusual to want someone who does not want you.
I can rhapsodize about passion, soliloquize about my heart,
Is it you, the idea of love, or just another fire to start?
Who are we kidding darling, what are we afraid to say?
Is this truly something real, or are we just trying to play?
Can I be honest to myself, without being dishonest and afraid,
Know what I truly want, say it without you running away?
There's not a doubt that I want someone, but I truly know that it's you,
Sometimes you have to be cool with wanting someone who does not want you.
Just do me one more favor baby, if you truly want to set me be free,
Look at me in the eye one time, and tell me you don't truly want me.
Because we all want someone baby, that will always remain to be true,
I can take you not wanting me, if you can take me not wanting you.
