Pursue

Pursuing

(Verse 1)
I've been running 
Running to you
But was I really running
To someone who didn't want to pursue 
You said you liked me
You said you cared 
But in my darkest hours 
You were never there 
You just said what I wanted to hear
That's not what I need 
I need someone who loves me for me
Tell me what's a girl to do
When she is rushing to be pursued

(Chorus)
Take your time, just wait
You don't want to make a mistake(mistake)
Being with someone just because
That's not what you've dreamed of
Its OK to be you 
But no matter what you do (you do)
Don't just rush to be pursued 

(Verse 2)
What's the definition of a mate
They help you balance your plate
They add that charm 
To your day 
A bright smile you'll display 
Picking out the small things 
What a joy it brings 
To know that you, have something so pure and true
Its your time , you've waited 
Got swept off your feet its an understatement
The feeling you feel makes you 
Know how it feels to be pursued 


Chorus)
Take your time, just wait
You don't want to make a mistake(mistake)
Being with someone just because
That's not what you've dreamed of
Its OK to be you 
But no matter what you do (you do)
Don't just rush to be pursued 

(Hook)
Its OK, to have feelings 
Let it be with someone
Who wants more than just dealings 
Its OK , to have feelings
Let it be with someone 
Who wants more than just dealings 

Chorus)
Take your time, just wait
You don't want to make a mistake(mistake)
Being with someone just because
That's not what you've dreamed of
Its OK to be you 
But no matter what you do (you do)
Don't just rush to be pursued 

Repeat until chorus fades
