You say you love me,
But if it were true,
You would move mountains,
Walk thru hot coals
Do almost anything to prove that you do.
But you tell me
That I am the one that must swim against the tide,
I am the one that must change my life,
Just for the priviledge of being by your side.
There you sit,
In your ivory tower with hands in your pockets,
Looking down on me..
Wondering why I am not there yet,
Because you snapped your fingers ages ago,
And I should have responded instantly.
But I WOULD move mountains,
and walk thru hot coals
And fight the tide for the touch of your breath,
But it would be much better
to meet you halfway,
And have you want me and love me,
and be thinking of me...
But you don't so there is nothing left.
Because words are just words,
And talk is just talk,
but proof that you love me is all that I crave,
And I would cry for you,
Die for you,
Pull the stars out of the sky for you,
But never,ever,will I be your slave.
