I Want To Be To You What You Are To Me!

Laugh with me, Dance with me Get as deep under my skin as you can Easy as I’ve come to you, easy it is that I’m gone Become part of me, before it goes all wrong Give to me what I need, which is love and affection All the things I give to you, right back in my direction Your love in return, it all that I seek I want to be to you what you are to me! Just close your eyes, picturing you lost a love one My feelings are the same each day your away Don’t bring any extra baggage my way Fix what’s is broken then approach me Clean up your act, and maybe we’ll see But, it’s already clear where the prize is Either you desire to have or you don’t No excuses, no front Put yourself in my shoes, and you’d see I want to be to you what you are to me! , qualities I’m strange fruit that’s who I am Southern Trees drip juice that runs straight threw me I imagine my lips pressed firmly against yours Bitter sweet is the taste, like my favorite pasta dish It’s not me who you seek, maybe someone more manish Years apart, experience differs, growing up in different times What appears in the light to you, looks another way in mine My convo is good, that you seem to approve of But when it comes to giving back what I’m putting out, I gets no love There I’ve said it, it’s out there for everyone to see I simply what to be to you, what you are to me!
