All I Wanted Was You

When I found you, I forgot myself
When you lost yourself, I found your heart
When you lost self-appreciation, I got a tattoo of your face
But when you left me, I found myself

Like gravity on a bouncing tennis ball I'll catch you fall from your most high
Like a bird I'll sing you a song that no other can compose
Like the fan on a hot day I'll cool you down and make you smile again

Oh You, So High
Look down I'd love to see your eyes full of beautiful pretence
Oh You, So High
When are you ever going to learn to truly love yourself again

I would say love me for who I am but you proved to know nothing about me
I would say love me like I deserve to be loved but you can't because you never got yourself around the definition of 'deserve'
Instead I asked you to look at me and you looked the other way
I asked you to call me by my name but all you did was refer to me as You or her
I gave you my heart, and you took it with the back of your hands
I showed you love and all you did was look with the corner of your eyes

I would say come back to me, but we can't be together because today I'm donating my heart.

Oh You, So High
I'll always look down hoping to catch your eyes again
