A Question Of Lust

Fragile
like a baby in your arms
be gentle with me
I┤d never willingly
do you harm

apologies
are all you seem to get from me
but just like a child
you make me smile
when you care for me
and you know

it┤s a question of lust
it┤s a question of trust
it┤s a question of not letting
what we┤ve built up
crumble to dust
it is all of these things and more
that keep us together

independence
is still important for us though
( we realize)
it┤s easy to make
the stupid mistake
of letting go
(do you know what I mean)

my weaknesses
you know each and every one
(it frightens me)
but I need to drink
more than you seem to think
before I┤m anyone┤s
and you know

it┤s a question of lust
it┤s a question of trust
it┤s a question of not letting
what we┤ve built up
crumble to dust
it is all of these things and more
that keep us together
kiss me goodbye
when I┤m on my own
but you know that I┤d
rather be home
