"Don't Want To"
© 2002 Brian Eggertsen, All Rights Reserved

If I could I'd pack my clothes
And move into your pocket
'Cause with the phase that time flows
I'm afraid I will forget
But I...

These walls drip with memories
That you and I shared together
Kisses on which our lips fead
They walk the road to never
But I...

Don't want to leave
You the way you are
Don't want to breathe
The air that's apart
I don't want to meet
Anyone else when you're gone
With you is where I belong

You think I don't hear you cry
I do but I can't get through
And it eats me from inside
To see your drown in your blues
But I...

Don't want to Slay
That soft heart of yours
Don't want to lay
Vows outside the door
I don't want to say
I don't love you when I'm gone
With you is where I belong

Don't want to 'cause
With you is where I belong...

Hallucination WOW this is utterly utterly delightful you’ve written an absolute diamond here. The flow of thought in this is wonderful and the rhyme absolutely divine. Absolutely perfect
