Love's Skeleton

We are not just flesh and bone

there is a heart underneath this skin

there is breath within

Dreaming the dream of home

Inside your arms is where I long to be

Yet you can only be with me sometimes

I never seem to win

I feel so lonely

Oh God I confess he is my only

Wrong or right

Blues or abuse

He took the time to get me lychees and jujubes

Yet you can't just leave her for me

Yet you do things just to make me happy

You say you are happy in your personal life

Its a confusing twilight mind

I need a 100 percent love

Not a love that lasts sometime

Yet I am a prisoner

I can't say goodbye

I cant close my eyes and ignore the want in my heart

What is a girl to do

Why do I sit here missing you

Why do you text me you miss me

if we can never be

We are just love's skeleton

I hope one day we will be more than friends in the end

I am already 41 so I guess  maybe I am alone in this love

He tells me he is just a passing cruising ship

I dont understand this

when he tells me I should tell him when I am blocking you

Why must I let you know I am going to leave

Why don't you let me go

Why did you come and help me say goodbye to my Kiddo

Yet it is eternal heartache

Cause all I want to do is stay

You say we can stay keep seeing each other this way

Yet we can't walk in ranch 99 without your hand in mine

Yet we kissed in the park under moonlight

Another confused guy

All the others just want that good time

what happened fellas?

where are the ones who know how to talk to a lady

the other barely texts anymore

Mr. Right never knocks on my door

I guess that fairy tale is just a story

All I have that is left is love's skeleton

I call him Ben maybe one day we will be more than friends in the end

I want to walk away

He says we can keep seeing each other and just stay

Its a bittersweet truth

How can I leave when deep inside i always miss you

tell me where to go, tell me what to do

I dont want to be a stranger

I dont want to be a memory

I want to be more than just love's skeleton

I want you to know I care

tell me we were something then

more than love's skeleton
