Something you can't do

By murder_in_clubland

So many tears I have cried

wondering where you were late at night

a forgotten lover,just passing you by?

You walk through the door with a smile on your face

How can you be so happy?

"Sorry I was late"

Pulling out flowers and icecream...

And there was kissing

Late nights as the candles glowed

flickering in the midst of all the heat

You just held me as our bodies entwined

interlacing...again and again

Where did that go?

did we leave it behind when we left that place?

And where did that go?

We left it behind without a trace

I wish we could have that back,

Grasp those moments one last time

and tell me that you love me,

weve lost that passion that a girl like me needs

A girl like me...NEEDS.

My heart breaks

as you pull my hair

and call me a whore

But I don't know what to do

besides giving you pleasure

I dont know how to say I need you,

How desperatly I need you...

I'm telling you now I need you

I need you to hold me and stroke me hair

kiss my forhead and tell me its going to be alright

I need your support so desperatly

and lovemaking.I need you to love me,over and over

And I dont know what to do

Ive lost all hope in my heart

You kissed me but its just not the same

not the same as when you loved me,really loved up

when you opened up your shoulder

So i had something to lean on when I needed you most

But nothings the same...

I brought myself to tears

couldnt imagine being so empty without you

but theres something that i need

that you just cant do.
