I see you never want to see me soar
up above, the heights galore
where tree tops meet the cloudy shore
with blue backdrops beyond the white
leave me to the burden I bore.

I see you never want to see me cry
in happiness, that together we’ll die
lovers arms, forever intertwined
with each a kiss upon the cheek
You’d rather alone I sleep.

I see you never want to see me call
your lovely name, that sporadic song
that’s rhythmic quality left me so long
for the sorrowful swoon of the sea
You’d rather not be with me.

I see you’d rather not hold my hand
or kiss my lips
or be my man
I see you prefer not to understand,
what it is to be something, everything,
to me.
