Take Me for Longing

Don't chose me because I am faithful

Don't choose me because I am kind

If your heart settles on me

I'm for the taking

Take me for longing or leave me behind.



I would be, for you, a fire in a rainbow

I would be, for you, an opening door

Time and hard lessons are one kind of wisdom

Try to forget them or love me no more.



--- Instrumental ---



I'm not asking your heart to believe me

I'm not asking for promise or pledge

Whatever the answer, it's yes that's the question

I am the fool dancin' over the edge.



--- Instrumental ---



Don't choose me because I am faithful

Don't choose me because I am kind

If your heart settles on me, I'm for the taking

Take me for longing or leave me behind...
