You tease me like the sun
On an overcast cloudy day
Touching me so quickly,
Before going again away

I will answer all your questions,
You will get inside my brain
You will make me think your way,
I will love you just the same

I will follow all your footsteps,
Zig zag, so very wide
Let you lead me all around,
Losing dignity and pride

You will waste my time for profit,
I will use my time for you
The checks and balance don’t add up,
You’ll convince me that they do

The sadist and the masochist,
The egoist and martyr
Opposite poles of personality,
Fulfilling needs against the other

Call me up to say hello,
But you haven’t got the time
Tell me to be grateful that,
For me you’ve dropped a dime

You flourish in my pain,
I flourish in it too
Your wants, my needs,
Yours first, mine last
Alternative love, for us is true
