Sometimes I ...

Sometimes I don't like myself and it's making me sad
Sometimes I don't want to go to where we first met
Sometimes I don't want to remember all the things we've done
Coz sometimes when I do that I get this pain inside
And I want to run...

Run to where I'm safe from harm
Safe from all the things you've told me
Run away from all this pain
Coz you were never there to hold me

Sometimes I don't know myself and I feel surprised
About the things that I did to keep you until I realized
That you were never there for me when I needed you the most
Although I'm free ... can do what I want
I still ask myself what I've lost ...

Where were you when I needed you when I felt too bad?
Where have you been in my darkest hours when I felt so sad?
That I could not be in your arms
Sometimes I know it hurts, sometimes I feel deserted
But where were you when I needed you?
Same Old Blues ...

True Love is not Desire

Give pleasure to each other, but don’t demand it in return

For true love is not desire

The stronger the passion, the grater its demands

And the stronger passion’s demands, the greater its emphasis on self-love

Not in passion, but in tenderness. In kindness, love finds its ideal expression
