Only You

So it seems I’ve lost you
for you never to return
It seems you’ve had to cut your losses
as far as I’m concerned
You thought you left me aching
and drowning in the pain
thinking that I don’t deserve
to have you in my life that way

But you will be back for me,
wanting me back ‘cause,
you will be back to see
if I’ll make you the priority,
abandon all else
so you can have your way with me,
and, I’m left with only you

Didn’t you think I’d wonder
the reasons it could be,
figure out where I had gone wrong
and what’s so wrong with me?
You forget that I remember
who I really am,
and I know why that you are gone
and why that here I stand

‘cause you will be back for me,
wanting me back ‘cause,
you will be back to see
if I’ll make you the priority,
abandon all else
so you can have your way with me…

Your poise and your discretion
conceal your whole intention
to get in and break down
and get out before it falls on you

Were you threatened by the purpose
that was driving me along?
‘Cause I would say I had direction
and let you steer me wrong
But now you get your close-up,
as I turn up the lights,
revealing all the plans you had for
me to forget mine!

But you will be back for me,
wanting me back ‘cause,
you will be back to see
if I’ll make you the priority,
abandon all else
so you can have your way with me,
and, I’m left with only you

So it seems I’ve lost you…
