Lyric Asking Too Much

I want somebody who sees the pointlessness
and still keeps their purpose in mind
I want somebody who has a tortured soul
some of the time
I want somebody who will either put out for me
or put me out of misery
or maybe just put it all to words
and make me say, you know
I never heard it put that way
make me say, what did you just say?
I want somebody who can hold my interest
hold it and never let it fall
someone who can flatten me with a kiss
that hits like a fist
or a sentence, that stops me like a brick wall
because if you hear me talking
listen to what I m not saying
if you hear me playing guitar
listen to what I m not playing
and don t ask me to put words
to all the spaces between notes
in fact if you have to ask, forget it
do and you ll regret it
I m tired of being the interesting one
I m tired of heving fun for two
just lay yourself on the line
and I might lay myself down by you
but don t sit behind your eyes
and wait for me to surprise you
I want somebody who can make me
scream until it s funny
give me a run for my money
I want someone who can
twist me up in knots
tell me, for the woman who has everything
what have you got?
I want someone who s not afraid of me
or anyone else
in other words I want someone
who s not afraid of themself
do you think I m asking too much?
