While you want successes, you also have to have failures too. This one, not my finest work. It doesn’t flow. However, it’s still my art.
Everybody Wants to Be in Love Written 2/20/10
Baby, I love you
Baby, I need you
I’ve got to have you
I need you to complete me
How many times have I heard them words before
Just to see them evaporate in the air
What happened to the love we used to have
Tell me why it’s no longer there
Oh why, why do we fall in love
Just to have it all go away
Just to have all the feelings fade
Nothing in life was ever meant to stay
I’ve taken off the rose colored glasses
And I see you for who you are
My passion for you has died down
And I don’t feel the need to try as hard
Everybody wants to be in love
What the hell are these people thinking of
By the third month I’m already sick of you
And all you want from me is what I can do for you
Everybody wants to be in love
Not realizing what that consists of
Maybe I’m just cynical about it
Maybe this is something I can’t mess with
Baby, I love you
Baby, I need you
I’ve got to have you
I need you to complete me
I don’t know why you like to do me this way
I don’t know why you wouldn’t be begging me to stay
And baby I don’t know why you don’t love me everyday
I don’t understand
Don’t treat me like that
Something about us just ain’t the same
I don’t know how I feel anymore
How dare you even call this love
What are we wasting our time for
Oh I, I don’t want to spend any time
I need to go find my friends
But you want all my attention
When will the madness end
Some people say the honeymoon is over
And we’ve moved into a better phase
We’ve moved past the lust
I want those honeymoon days
Everybody wants to be in love
What the hell are these people thinking of
By the third month I’m already sick of you
And all you want from me is what I can do for you
Everybody wants to be in love
Not realizing what that consists of
Maybe I’m just cynical about it
Maybe this is something I can’t mess with
Baby, I love you
Baby, I need you
I’ve got to have you
I need you to complete me
I don’t know why you like to do me this way
I don’t know why you wouldn’t be begging me to stay
And baby I don’t know why you don’t love me everyday
I don’t understand
Don’t treat me like that
Everybody wants to be in love
What the hell are these people thinking of
By the third month I’m already sick of you
And all you want from me is what I can do for you
Everybody wants to be in love
Not realizing what that consists of
Maybe I’m just cynical about it
Maybe this is something I can’t mess with
