They say life is give and take
I beg to differ ‘cause
I don’t want anything from you

Please don’t hold back
Being you ‘cause
That’s who you are

And if you’d give up
Even the tiniest bit of you for me
Then we both lose you

How could I love all of you
If you don’t love all of you
If you’re giving up you?

How could I be your lover
Your friend
If that means losing you?

I don’t want to lose you
You’re precious and unique
Beautiful just the way you are

I love that little child in you and me
That authentic spontaneous being
That could hardly ever be

That loving thoughtless being
Reaching out it’s hand
Wanna play with me?

Did we forget
Have we gone astray
If dogma and morality trumps play?

I love you
As you are
Not what remains

You’re no extension of me
You are you
Just like me

❤
