Why do we want what we know we can’t have?
When I was young I wanted a bike,
Then there was this girl that I sort of liked,
There was football and hockey and so much more
But no matter how much the one thing for sure
The more that I wanted, it seemed never to be,
So I end up disappointed but, more importantly
I give up stop trying then eventually
I’m branded a loser no good anyhow.
Now there’s this girl that I really like
And whenever I see her she tells me to hike.
What do I do, what can I say
How do I convince her or should I just go away?
She fills up my thoughts she drives me insane
Even in sleep I call out her name.
And though all of this I’m reminded again
Of the things that I wanted but just couldn’t have.
Maybe its time to try even more, prove what I want
Instead of conceding all the things that I can’t.
This is really a case of something I want
And I'm determined to make her my own.
Maybe with flowers I can win her heart
Even if not, at least it’s a start.
Starting tomorrow, no starting today
I'm going to give it my all, 'cause this time its for me
I want her to look I want her to see
That there is more than what she sees externally
No longer am I accepting what I can’t have
She's what I want and this time I'll not fail
I'm going to prove that I am the right male
This is the girl that I want and I love
This is the girl that I really must have.
