And I want to play hide and seek and give you my clothes
And tell you I like your shoes
And hold your hand and go for a meal
And not mind when you eat my food
And meet you at Rudy's and talk about the day
And type your letters and carry your boxes
And laugh at your paranoia and give you tapes you don't listen to
And watch great films and watch terrible films
And complain about the radio
And take pictures of you sleeping
And get up to fetch you tea and bagels
And take you to your hospital and not laugh at your jokes
And want you in the morning but let you sleep for a while
And kiss your back and stroke your skin
And tell you how much I love
Your hair, your eyes, your lips
Your neck, your breasts, your arse, your-
And sit and stop smoking 'til your neighbor comes home
And sit and stop smoking 'til you come home
And worry when you're late, and be amazed when you're early
And give you sunflowers and go to your party
And be sorry when I'm wrong and happy when you forgive me
And look at your photos and wish I'd known you forever
I will want you
I will, I will, I will
Crave
And hear your voice in my ear
And feel your skin on my skin
And get scared when you're angry, and hug you when you're anxious
And hold you when you're hurt, and want you when I smell you
And whimper when I'm next to you
And whimper when I'm not
And smother you in the night
And get cold when you take the blanket
And hot when you don't and melt when you smile
Dissolve when you laugh and not understand why you think I'm rejecting you
When I'm not rejecting you
And wonder how you think I'd ever reject you
And wonder who you are but accept you anyway
And have a feeling so deep, I can't find the words for it
And want to buy you a kitten I get jealous of
'Cause it would get more attention than me
And keep you in bed when you have to go
And cry like a baby when you finally do
And get rid of the roaches and ask you to marry me
And you say no again, but keep on asking
Because though you think I don't mean it, I do
I always have from the first time I asked you
And wander the city thinking it's empty without you
And want what you want and think I'm losing myself
But know I'm safe with you
And tell you the worst of me and try to give you the best of me
Because you don't deserve any less
And answer your questions when I'd rather not
And tell you the truth when I really don't want to
And try to be honest 'cause I know you prefer it
And think it's all over but hang on in for just ten more minutes
Before you throw me out of your life and forget who I am
And try to get closer to you
'Cause it's beautiful learning to know you
And well worth the effort
And speak French to you badly and Turkish to you worse
And make love with you at 3 in the morning
And somehow, somehow, somehow
Communicate some of the overwhelming, undenying, overpowering
Unconditional, all-encompassing, heart-enriching
Mind-expanding, ongoing, never-ending love I have for you
I will, I will, I will
I will, I will, I will
I will, I will, I will
I will, I will, I will
I will, I will, I will
Crave, crave, crave
