It's not fair that you can take me in your arms
And then run away and leave me to live without you
Until you drift back again.

It's not fair that when I had a fling
You looked through her photos, wondered if I loved her more than you
And yet when I remind you that I am
Yours
Before anyone else's
You remind me that you
Are his.

It's not fair that when I meet a girl
Whose fingertips make me shiver
Whose voice quickens my heart
That you seem to know
Even after such a long, long silence
You seem to know and instantly return
And I remember how I love you and
Fall to it.

It's not fair that you keep me here
Not close enough to touch
But just close enough to dream.
And it's not fair
That I love it too much
To want it any other way.
