What I Wanted

What I wanted,

was to live no more,

but then you came along,

and changed all that.

Love changed my life,

with simple words,

across this screen.

What I wanted,

was to be with you.

But it’s like I’m not really with you,

when you are all the way over there.

What I wanted,

was a relationship.

What I got,

was rare phone calls,

and sleepless nights,

wondering if this is what love,

is really all about.

What I wanted,

was you.

Now all I have,

are memories.

It’s like you’re not even with me anymore.

Like I’m alone.

This isn’t what I wanted,

but then again,

you don’t always get what you want,

do you?
