Giving Up

Here I am again

I am the only one

I am the lonely one, just a fresh face

ripe for the picking, you’re like a child

waxing and waiting

Choose me for your bouquet

pick me and I’ll be okay

for a short while, for a little while

You said it could only be me

but you never seem happy in my company

you’ve got to take a second out of your life

and just talk everything through

Are you giving up on love?

Or just giving up on me?

We don’t have to live the sad story

I can see that you’re thinking it’s gonna be

Your life’s gonna be hard this way

you need something to lean on, maybe

I could be your man again, whatever that’s worth

I don’t know what you need ‘til you tell me

Pick me up sometime, we could

have a shot at a good thing, I miss your face

haven’t seen a smile crack across it, you’re stone

I can’t get a root down

I’ve been looking back on a few things

felt you to hesitate to reciprocate my ‘I love you’

giving up on love

or just giving up on me

we don’t have to be the sad story

I can see that you’re thinking it’s gotta be

are you giving up on love

or just giving up on me

giving up on love

or just…

….

You said it could only be me

but you never seem happy in my company
