I know what I want from you.
Your smile makes me young.
You wash away my life's regrets
The sorrow that was brung.
You've slipped inside behind my shell
so tricky that you are.
I try so hard to run and hide
You've caught me from afar.
What's in it for you?
I ask myself, I know your little game.
I know that I'm a "prize" to win
It'll only end in shame.
And yet, you make me young again
the thing I haven't felt.
Don't crush me with your ego,
please just make me melt.
