I Want You

Good girl with a big heart
Magnetizing false starts
Lost her father at a young age
Gave what was left of it
To someone who kept calling quits
Abandonment, you could feel the pain
Even though she kept it in
Hoping for that betterment
She would only seem to attract the same
High school sweethearts
Who would only depart
2 girls going all against the grain

I don't know all the details
Pertaining to these females
But I'll bet it all that I know enough
One would only derail
While the other rebelled
To her destiny that was lined up
Ended up in a one night stand
As form of a punishment
In defense with intent to reprimand
But-but-but she would fail to comprehend
That on the other hand
She found she landed in quicksand
The sands of time would later bring change
When the person you are with
Ain't the one, but you've already met them... what a twist so strange
Bigger fills the picture
For this open frame
Feelings for the new comer
Love proclaimed
Bigger are the wishes
That one day they'd feel the same
Juggling the past until the present changes
Unknown are the answers
To the waiting game
So she waits

I don't know what the results
Of what it will be like when it comes through
Yet all I know is that I want you

Good girl with a bright heart
Mastering what life brought
Father still exists but was hardly there
Observing from her single mother
Oldest to her younger brothers
Had to grow up, was no time for scared
Men came and went as they pleased
Being abandoned is all she perceived
Thank god for her uncles and her gramps
The men in her life
The one set of guys, she knew would never leave
Never wanted to believe this is how it is
When it came to true love she was unconvinced
But the trauma of her mother
And her father only made her stronger, yet made her afraid to commit
Smart with her heart and sharp as a tack
Born and raised with a lack to attach
Music always was her great escape
Music was what put love on the map
Years later met a girl with a big heart
Magnetizing false starts through a set of mutual friends
Both had agreed to link up for a one night stand or so they thought was the plan
All in between was on and off again
One did the offering
While the other wasn't ready
I've had plenty, I've had many
I've had gitty, I've had petty

And then one day, she had sit to with herself
She had sift all of it through
And when clarity kicked in, all she could say is
All I know is that I want you
