She is the one for you
And by that I mean she undermines
you just the way you need her to
Familiarly, comfortably
She gives you the disapproval
that you've been giving you
She sets the tone of the room
And lately does the thinking now
you won’t have to do
She stands unchallenged,
you're kept engaged
It's an ideal arrangement
for the both of you
He is the one for you, and that is to say
It feels good to be needed in this way
Beautifully overwhelming
He speaks of damage only
you can keep at bay
Nursing him on a bad day
This boy blue brings the drama
you've been known to pursue
You look at him, he looks at you
He is the one for you
You are the one for me
And by that I mean you elude me
the way I need to be, repeatedly
Repeatedly I chase you
You let me believe I might catch you,
I might be worthy
Might I be worthy? Maybe.
Funny, it's you who’s never
proved yourself to me
I look at you, you look at me -
this all feeds your ego obviously
None of it's a mystery
I tell myself that what I want's
for you to give yourself to me
But that's not it apparently
I need to need you, I need to feel
I can't quite hold you
You are the one for me
