Take What I Can Get

(album: Matters Of The Heart - 2019)

I ain't been telling you everything I feel

Four hours on the phone
Makes you feel a little less alone
Me too, baby (Me too, baby, me too)
But it's hard to just be friends
When we were never friends before, no

But I guess I'll take what I can get
I guess I'll take what I can get

And you're two thousand miles away
And I can tell your heart's still not ready
It takes two, baby (It takes two, baby, takes two)
And it's hard to be so patient when I'm so impatient for more

But I guess I'll take what I can get
I guess I'll take what I can get

I'm wishing, I'm hoping
You're saving the best for last
And I'm staying but I'm aching
The thought of you loving someone else

Am I to get burned?
'Cause you light fires?
And then you turn a 180 (180)
Can you come around full circle, am I gonna be able to pretend I'm satisfied

I guess I'll take what I can get
I guess I'll take what I can get

'Cause I'm wishing, I'm hoping
You're saving the best for last
And I'm staying but I'm aching
With the thought of you loving someone else

I'll take it all the way
Though it's killing me, babe
I'm wishing on the day
That you gon' give it all to me

I guess I'll take what I can get
It's got to be better than nothing
I guess I'll take what I can get
It's gotta be better than nothing
I guess I'll take what I can get
I'll play the best friend
I'll give you everything, baby
So, baby, take it all, oh, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Take it all, baby
(Take all, yeah)
(Take all, yeah)
(Take all, yeah)
