I wanted to be with you but my morals got in the way
And sometimes as a guy and as an opportunist, I regret those daysYou wanted emotional and i wanted physical..........I wanted to be seen with you in public, holding hands but not the actual relationship........I was so...........hypocriticalYou used to sit on my lap on the stairs as we sat outside our houses, laughing and jokingBut even though you wanted the emotion and i wanted the sex, it was clear we both wanted to be pokingBut I couldn't do itI wanted to control myself and steer away from my nasty thoughts instead of staying true to themYou said you had a boyfriend but he was in the navyAnd I thought it was messed up that you talked to him but said you wanted to be with me, that there wasn't gravyYou had all the dudes in the neighborhood wanting to get with you, and you played alongBut Jazz, unfortunately I just couldn't get with the tune of your songI wanted to fall in love with your melodies and the smoothness of your voiceYou was cool jazz but for me I just had to dig deep within myself and make a choiceDo I take advantage of the tunes that constantly persuade me to dance your way? Or do I choose another genre of music and different instruments to play?Do I wanna orchestrate and help create the musicOr do I wanna make up the song as i go, making treble clefs, open and closed or any way I choose to abuse it?I just hope your happy, I hope you and the Navy guy is on the same chordI hope he's the right conductor and hopefully his lost is something you can't afford.
