All You've Got


I turn away from you.

You don't love me, you love the view.

I won't live my life with you, just because you want me to.

You can want me, you can want me all my life. But it is because I have known love that I will never want you back.

When I find real love, I will love with all I've got.

But this isn't real love, this is lust and that is all you've got.
