Copy-Cat Lover
© Triskell, June 24, 2001


(Pouncival)

A copy-cat lover, that’s what I am;
A copy-cat Tugger, an idiot, a sham…

How can she love where there’s nothing to see?
Imitating another, she’ll never know me.
And what if I showed her the truth in my heart?
She couldn’t accept it; I’m playing my part…

A copy-cat lover, that’s what I am;
A copy-cat Tugger, an idiot, a sham…

Myself…I’m a stranger, uncertain but true,
There’s little to nothing that I wouldn’t do;
But she fell for the cool tom, the flirt and the game,
I’m not really like that, not like him, not the same…

A copy-cat lover, that’s what I am;
A copy-cat Tugger, an idiot, a sham…

It hurts to be with her, chained and not free
And I love her, I want her, I can’t let her be,
Her heart is another’s, her smiles still for me -
Her copy-cat Tugger, a tom in misery…
