Want To Love You

from Rule Of The Game by Henry True

/

lyrics

There was a time I thought that I could be someone to look upon
and stand behind
I drank the tea it made me dream until the day looked just the same
as the night

I'm a little older now
alive and kicking still somehow
alone within, alone without
a fighting chance

but I can dance
and baby I want to love
want to love
want to love
baby I want to love you
baby I want to

There was a time I thought of you in ways I thought I wanted to
be perceived
I couldn't see that you were me like branches bloom above the roots
of the tree

We're a little wiser now
Rising for a closing bow
Alone within, alone without
A fighting chance

but we can dance
and baby I want to love
want to love
want to love
baby I want to love you
baby I want to

Want to love you like a friend
forgiven, no need to pretend
I'm a coward, I'm a thief
Don't waste your precious life on me

There was a time I thought of us but now those day have gone to rust
gone to seed
We stood beneath the rotten wreath and made a tryst, the lonely kiss
of our greed

But we're both past that anyhow
You made a prayer and took a vow
alone within, alone without

but still somehow
baby I want to love
want to love
want to love
baby I want to love you
baby I want to

Want to love you as a friend
forgiven, no need to pretend
I'm a coward, I'm a thief
don't waste your precious life on me
