It didn't have to be obscene
To stop my heart with fantasy
It's beautiful, but
All I want is you
It didn't have to be so complete
You could have left
Some room for Mystery
When I turn out the light
All I see is you
I can hardly wait

In the place where
I've been waiting
From the start
Will I find a place to
Stop my heart
You didn't have to be so mean
You could have held me as I
Searched for meaning
When I reach for the sky
All I see is you
You didn't have to be so cold
When I look in the mirror
I feel so old
It's all meaningless
But I believe in you
