I've Got You

You say that your heart's on fire
It makes you oscillate, makes you shiver and perspire
You never known this kind of desire
You can't let it go, afraid that it'll fly away

And so you chase it night and day
Smoking that shit while your life just falls by the wayside
And by the way, did I mention that I miss you?
Man, you're like my brother, but those drugs done tricked you

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the need
To unstitch the seams and look underneath your dreams
But your body's a temple and you keep it double glazed
Telling me every month that its just a phase

You told me (???) be perfect and you can't stand it
Life's a free fall and you'd rather do it tandem
Man, I see you getting all that talent wasted
You've got so much to give, and I just wanted to say

I got you, that's all I got you
I am someone in this world who you mean a lot to and
So no matter how hard these days feel
I'm not trying to make sense, just wanna tell you something real

One day you'll see what I see
You'll realise what you're worth and probably up and leave
I'm scared to death, but its worse to see
You acting like a slave when you really are a queen

Hey love, how'd you get this way?
Duckling became a swan but she bailed on the fairy tale
Don't worry about it, leave it with yesterday
Your everything's amazing, so how are you set to fail?

And part of me knows who to blame
Can't forgive anybody who would ever cause you pain
And you think I'm taking pity on your helpless
But I just make you smile cause I'm selfish

You're sexy, and what's more, you impress me
And when you let the self hate go, you'll be set free
They made this worse, but i'm trying to make it right
We're gonna make this work if it takes all out lives like

I've got you, that's all I've got
I've got you, that's all I've got
I've got you, that's all I've got
And I wrote this one cause I couldn't stand the loss
