Think about those books you read
and I wonder if they make you think about me
Maybe if the hero dies
or kisses other girls and tries to justify his reasons why
Set the stage for make believe,
I said I'm not your father and I'll never leave
I'll just stay and make it worse
and keep your life from going on it's natural course
Think about those songs you play
and wonder if the words help you to stay
Maybe if the melody is filled with both the pain
and the ecstasy of loving me
