Human Nature

I’ve been lonely before, I will be again

The tears have been shed, I’ve dried my eyes.

The pain has diminished, I can finally see.

I thought I wanted you, I really wanted love.

I picked you out of the crowd, set my sights on you,

Decided you were the one for me, though I wasn’t for you

If only I had waited, if only I had seen.

I never should have told you, now it is too late.

I’ve made things change, they will never go back

Your friendship is all I want, too late now I see

The laws of nature are the cause, the reason for my ways.

What I wanted, I could not have

Human Nature demands it, no one is immune

What I want now, I fear I have lost

That is my only regret, to lose your friendship
