Weve been over this before
And Im sensing you want more
I dont need someone who complicates me

And its not that I dont care
But theres some things I cant share
Girl, I told you Im not there

Girl, the worlds been down on me
I dont need someone to own me
Girl, a lover is all I need
Im the one who needs to hold me

[chorus:]
Since I met you, Ive been hearing the same thing
And it seems its all we talk about lately
So before you go out on the limb
Dont tell me its love
Its that look in your eyes that betrays me
And the things that you do to amaze me
Dont tell me its so

What Im offerings what you see
Im giving you my honesty
And Im sorry if it hurts to hear the truth

And maybe I will find in time
That all along girl, you were right
That I should have made you mine

But for now I still believe
That I dont need someone to own me
Just a lover is all I need
And someone whos gonna hold me

[repeat chorus]
