What You Need

(albüm: What You Need - 2017)

Countless times
We've said it was over
Made up our minds
We shouldn't be lovers

But I hear life has made you jaded
And the light you had is faded
And I wonder, would you still shine for me?

Just call it intuition
I have tried hard not to listen
But a voice keeps saying I'm what you need

Months go by
And it's radio silence
I'll be resigned
That your name won't pass my lips

But then you call me up one day
And my resolve just melts away
And I can't help but fall into you again

I know I have to quit
I catch myself before admitting
It's not good enough to just be your friend

But deep down
I know you only miss me
Because my face brings back your memories
Of a better time
When you felt alive

It's hard to give you up
Our best was never quite enough
We weren't supposed to last
I'm never going back

I hear life has made you jaded
And the light you had is faded
But I think you're finished shining for me
You're complacent in the dark
And now we're miles and years apart
I hope one day you finally find what you need
Why won't you figure out what you really need
I wish I could have the person you need
