I Never Finish |

I have a jigsaw puzzle that I'll never finish, and I drink coke and rum... and I don't want to hurt you; do you think I should come? I've never been one to follow through and I've said many times "I love you" and never finished it. Here it is midnight and I'm in quite a fix, I should be in bed since I get up at six but I'm wondering if I should call, damn, you inspire me! All you say is "you never know" but I know you desire me. And I know I want you, need you...need, yes need. Yet, I never finish... started by greed. I never follow through, see. But I need you for me. And I want to take that chance, Oh yes, I want to dance. But I don't want to hurt you... don't want to say I love you and leave, not finishing the feeling; but say that you can still believe. I need you. |

Nice...reminded me of an old Bob Dylan song that I liked, and perhaps still do...the song was "I Want You"...James |
