Love Me

by Phil Yarborough - Aquarius

Love me,
But only for a seconded.
Give me your life,
As I hold you in my palm.

You've let me down again
Although, you know,
I think I'm becoming immune
To you, your lies.
Crush me, but keep me whole.

I waited all my life,
Until I got old and gray,
Less than two decades of life,
And I feel old and gray around you.
You were just around the corner,
But tomorrow never came.

Love me,
There's a first time for everything,
Why break a habit of a lifetime,
When I'm always gonna be around,
Lasting longer than you,
You've lasted longer that I thought.

I'm still young,
You loved me as a child,
But I grew a brain,
It put fear in your mind,

I'm bigger than you now,
The tables have turned,
I see fear in your eyes,
As you used to see in mine
I know you still love me,
You love me as your own.
