Wanting me

Verse 1

You liked the way I opened every door,

The comfort, the care, the warmth you swore.

But when it came to giving back the same,

You left me standing, whispering my name.

Pre-Chorus

You wanted the light, but not the flame,

You wanted the touch, but not the name.

Chorus

Wanting access to me

Is not the same as wanting me.

You can borrow my time,

But you can’t claim my soul.

Desire without love

Isn’t making me whole.

So don’t confuse your need

With loving me.

Verse 2

You kept me close when nights got cold,

But never once did your heart unfold.

I gave my trust, you gave me half,

A fleeting moment, but not a path.

Pre-Chorus

You wanted the warmth, but not the fire,

You wanted the body, not the desire.

Chorus

Wanting access to me

Is not the same as wanting me.

You can borrow my time,

But you can’t claim my soul.

Desire without love

Isn’t making me whole.

So don’t confuse your need

With loving me.

Bridge

One day you’ll see the difference clear,

That love is more than just being near.

I’ll be long gone, where real hearts stay,

And you’ll remember the price you made me pay.

Final Chorus

Wanting access to me

Is not the same as wanting me.

I won’t be your shelter,

I won’t play that role.

‘Cause a touch without love

Only fractures the soul.

So don’t confuse your need…

With loving me.
