All I Want Is Your Sweet Love

I wonder when this heart will stop its endless bleeding.

Managing to always have it all except the one thing its been needing.

Paying the price no matter what the cost.

Unable to balance after what was gained is lost.

Laughing at the lies that the clowns are busy feeding.

Giving it everything I've got never yet succeeding.

Taking every friggin' blow.

From another friend who is now a foe.

Wishing that the emptiness will finally disappear.

Listening to another lecture only instilling fear.

I only want a common ground.  A place to hang my hat.

All I want is your sweet love.  Why can't you give me that?

Wandering eyes in a world full of crooks.

Wishing that the situation is different than it looks.

Although I know that you aren't able to kiss and hold me tight.

You always seem to find a way to make the wrong things right.

Hopelessly walking the line, wrecklessly skating thin ice.

I am in need of a crutch a friend would be nice.

Hoping for some confidence.  Bound by shackles of confusion.

You're contradicting their negativity.  They say you're an allusion.

Another test of patience while my patience is wearing thin.

A million broken pieces, I can't put it together again.

Getting only attitude, always aggravation.

Wishing you were by my side.  Instead, it is separation.

Holding on to memories that quickly fade away.

I'm keeping you close to my heart no matter what they say.

I only want a common ground.  A place to hang my hat.

All I want is your sweet love.   Why can't you give me that?

I wonder when this tattered heart will find the strength to go on beating.

Always working, never quitting.  Trying, not succeeding.

Taking the blame without committing the crime.

Living "lock down" in an awful cold cell.  Always doing time.

Drowning in a sea of yet another broken dream.

Looking into evil eyes.  People aren't what they seem.

Kick me where it hurts the most.  I won't shed a tear.

Give me all that you got.  I will take on every fear.

Begging for stability.  I am on my hands and knees.

Been waiting on a miracle.  Can someone help me please?

I only want a common ground.  A place to hang my hat.

All I want is your sweet love.  Why can't you give me that?

Praying for our destruction.  I've never seen so much demise.

Watching each and every move while wearing a disguise.

I suppose it's unintentional, but what a tangled web we weave.

You are the only one I want.  Please don't ever leave.

Been minding my manners.  Been keeping so quiet.

You got something to sell?  Can't afford to buy it.

Dreaming of a brighter day.  Where are the clear blue skies?

When I'm missing you, I'm missing me.  I've been searching for your eyes.

Another hopeless challenge.  Can I find the strength to pull me through?

In a world of mass-confusion, your love is the only thing that is true.

Receiving only heartache.  Always isolation.

Wanting just to hold your hand.  My only one temptation.

Dancing in a danger zone.  Tip-toeing past jealousy.

Observing you while you read my mind.  I know you belong with me.

I only want a common ground.  A place to hang my hat.

All I want is your sweet love.  Why can't you give me that?

Its been difficult to see you looking through these cloudy eyes.

Can't find a way to cope.  Can't find a compromise.

They're never going to understand.  They don't want you to be mine.

So, I'll just sip a little tea while I watch you walk the line.

Only you know how to stop my hurting.  They can't relate or comprehend.

You give to me the respect I need.  On you, I can depend.

Swimming in a spinning whirlpool of pure uncertainty.

I want to give back to you all of the things that you have given to me.

I watch them dragging you away.  Boy, they have got some balls.

I suppose that's just what people do-Break you 'til you crawl.

You're the only strength that I have.  You put things into check.

When my life is out of focus, and I am nothing but a wreck.

You give me hope, you give me laughter, you give me piece of mind.

You give me time, you give me direction, when I'm lost, it's you I find.

I can't explain this deep, desperate feeling that's consumed my inner soul.

I can't seem to drown your memory.  Dirty thoughts and alcohol.

I can't stand this separation.  Why can't we just bust loose?

I can't seem to keep from choking.  Won't you free me from this noose?

They're always only so judgmental.  I know you are different from the rest.

They're always only busy talking, but I can't help to want what's best.

I am begging you to help heal this heart, and stop its endless bleeding.

I want you so bad.  It's killing me.  You are the only thing I'm needing.

I need you with me, I need you only, I need you to be complete.

My tears are falling like the rain while I'm falling at your feet.

Pick me up and carry me.  Fulfill this aching need.

Give me all of your attention.  My love is guaranteed.

I know you can heal my broken heart.  Just put pressure on the bleeding.

I'll be impatiently awaiting the only one I am needing.

I only want a common ground.  A place to hang my hat.

All I want is your sweet love.  Why can't you give me that?

Why can't you give me that?
