I would do everything for you.

I wanted to be your girlfriend
You wanted to be my boyfriend
I wanted to be your lover
You wanted to be my lover
I wanted to be your fiancé
You wanted to be my fiancé
I wanted to be your wife
You wanted to be my husband
I wanted to bear your children
You wanted nothing more
I wanted to grow old with you
You wanted to rock in rockers...

Then I changed.

I wanted to be single
How foolish I was;
I grimace at my desire to mingle.

Now I've lost what I hold dear most
For a life full of meaningless boasts;
I know I have hurt you beyond stitches
But maybe you'll let me heal you with  kisses.

I guess the tides have turned;
I left you torn,
Unaware that I'd be burned
So now I mourn...
