If you love me


If you love me,

You can't wear that,

You can't say that,

You can't talk to him,

You can't post that,

You can't do this,

You can't do that,

No, stop, you're wrong,

You cannot tell me what to do,

Who to talk to,

What to wear,

What to say,

What to post,

Who to be,

Not because you love me.

 

If you love me,

You'd support me,

You'd encourage me,

You'd laugh with me,

You'd let me be who I am,

You'd love me for me,

Because you love me.
