Have Me

lyrics

You can't have diamonds made of gold You can't stop from getting old You can't put everyone you've loved into a single car and You can only go so far You can't have 700 wives You can't decide who lives or Why the universe exploded You can't have constant happiness You can't rebuild forgotten bliss Or mountaintops, eroded When I walked into your room I was so scared that you would see All the nervousness surrounding me But now I know I was the fool For starting every single Sentence in my head with “we” You can't have everything you want Or even sometimes what need Even if you need it desperately But, apple blossom, if I could I'd carve a shuttle out wood And fly us out beyond the breeze All alone except for stars I would wonder how you are The most beautiful of things But you can have me But you deserve to see the way you want to be But I have fallen
