Back Away
You brush against me,
And try to pull me close.
As I continue to push away.
Why can't you see?
I don't want anything with you.
You want a one night stand.
Can't you see I'm involved?
You're not the one I want to screw.
You didn't love me from day one.
And I'll admit I was fooled before.
But I've learned what true love is.
It's not just about getting some.
So back away from me.
You're not the one I love.
You could never take his place.
Him and only him completes me.
