Still burning

Aa Harvey

Still burning

 

 

I want someone who sets my heart on fire.

An eternal flame that is not denied.

I need a new spark to burn an avalanche of liars.

I need a direct route through to wife.

 

 

I want a get well card for my love life.

A slice of that cake sure looks nice,

But inside it’s carrot cake.

Where is the chocolate? 

Vegetables!

Give me a break!

 

 

Catch my drift and lead me into temptation.

I need to find a new sensation.

A love I have never had before.

Been there, done that; so tired; so bored.

I want a never before seen, woman of my dreams,

Who is destined to become my Queen.

 

 

Not a lover who already has a lover,

Or a lover who finds a new lover,

When I am meant to be with her.

I want original; not the same old same.

Give me fireworks!  

Come on!  Entertain!

 

 

A notion of excellence.

I don’t want to be one of many men.

I want to be unique.

One reject; two rejections;

Already taken, makes three.

 

 

If all I can have is bad for me,

Give me bad at lying; give me empathy.

Give me something for me…

Please.

    OK first off, you are already a 'one off'. you are unique and theres not another 'you' in the universe. Out there someplace is the thing/person who will suit you. She may not be a dead ringer of the gal in your dreams but she will fulfill your hopes desires and your need to please her.
    Don't stop looking BUT dont make too many important comprmises - the one you choose has to be a keeper and not a disaster in the making! Thats called making your head rule your heart.
    Remember this 'the harder you try, the luckier you get!'
    Good luck, the right one is out there and wants YOU just as much as you want HER. You just havent met yet.

      The problem is, I think I have met her, but love is so confusing until I actually say:

      "If you could only read my mind,
      You would know that things between us,
      Ain't right.
      I know your arms are open wide,
      But you're a little on the straight side,
      I can't lie.

      Your one vice,
      Is you're too nice.
      Come around now can't you see!

      I want you...
      I want you bad!

      Complete me.
      Mistreat me.
      Want you to be bad, bad, bad, bad, bad!

      If you could only read my mind,
      You would know that I've been waiting,
      So long;
      For someone almost just like you,
      But with attitude, I'm waiting,
      So come on.

      Get out of clothes time,
      Grow out those highlights,
      Come around now can't you see!

      I want you...
      I want you bad!

      Complicated.
      X-rated.
      I want you bad, bad, bad, bad, bad!"


      Want you bad - The Offspring
