Opportunity
When I hear the knock
I answer
No holding back
No regrets
Nothing special here
Only a pawn
Just a dollar sign
I sense your weakness
Your neediness
Your devotion
You are in love
You are my ladder
To climb on
Bruising you with my six inch heels
I ride this train as far as I can take it
Are you along for the ride?
Take you to cloud nine
But, when I get
What I am after
It's quitting time
Nothin personal
Just saw an opportunity
