Made for Me

I always wanted
To write a love song
Say simple words
Only one should hear

I was haunted
Intimidated
No-one prepares
For a ghost of fear

I thought love
Was part of
What I thought
Was best for me
Illusion
Confusion
You totally
Put a hook in me

Love done to us
Measures a trust
Nobody knows
Where it leads us

Where are you now
Far from here
Makes no difference
You are made for me

Did you ever want
Love without end
Say words only
One comprehends

But you were taunted
Infuriated
No-one prepares
For an idiot

I thought love
Was part of
Whatever I thought
Was best for me
Such an illusion
A sheer collusion
Then reality
Got a hold of me

What love does to us
Is measured by trust
Nobody knows where
It leads us

So where are you now
Far away from here
Makes no difference
You are made for me

I'll see you soon
We'll be two spoons
Wanting what we want
If that's too soon
We'll find some room
To taste what we've lost

Of course I thought love
Could be a part of
Whatever I thought
Would be best for me
Such an illusion
A sheer confusion
But you totally
Put a hook in me
