THE ELEVATOR TO LOVE

 

Love with you is like being in an elevator 
You're a spoiled kid pushing every floor 
One or two stops I can tolerate 
These 15 floors I cannot endure 

You love to take rest stops 
You want to explore every new floor 
I want to get to my chosen destination
I don't need to find something more 

You keep stopping the elevator 
I know now what you really want
A breaks in the midst of loving me
I quick stop for you frequent jaunts 

I am tired of all your excursions
I have decided to get off this ride
I am going to catch another elevator 
I'll find a passenger to stay by my side 

Someone who will push only MY buttons 
They will choose to ride with me home 
Someone that will get off on my floor
They will never leave me alone 

So you can just keep on playing 
Pushing buttons until you get stuck
You will be desperate, alone, and crying 
Lost between the floors love and lust
