Stuart Davis Miss Me
It's always meant so much to me
to mean so much to you
As I'm sure you were aware
And lovers' eyes in countless tries
attempt to capture souls
But with you my hands were bare
I would give my world to thee
but the world won't give me you
so I've taught myself to steal
And the way you act in front of me
when we act in front of them,
there's a side you won't reveal
I never asked for all your time
just the time alone with me
I never wanted everything
just what we know was meant to be
Chorus:
I don't wish you to miss me baby
but that's just how you'll feel
when in a lonely stare you'll become aware
you passed up what was real,
And I don't wish you to cry now baby
but that's just what you'll do
when you finally see you were meant for me
and I was meant for you
I know it's so much easier
to run from love like ours
his simple mind I'm sure you'll find
will leave you free of scars
So you take the road of safety
to free yourself of rules
and you never keep what we hold deep
and soon become the fool
If I've only been your jester
to keep you so amused
then I fear you've missed the chance
for bliss and got the two confused
Chorus
You gave him such devotion
in return he gave you lust
while I poured out emotions
and begged for you to trust
You gave yourself completely
you showed him how you cared
while the one you knew was meant for you
took what little time you'd spare
I know I'm not your only one
but I'm the one who's meant to be
And God knows I have tried so hard
but I can't make you see
Chorus
I don't wish you to miss me baby....
I don't wish you to cry now baby...
