Blues Traveler - What Do You Want From Me? lyrics

I held you, I said that I loved you

I said that I'd never leave

You said I'm easy, much too easy to hurt

And too easy to believe

So I'm on my own now

I've got myself for a friend

And it gets better every day

And now you wonder, yes you wonder aloud

Why I won't come out and play

What do you want from me?

Some say I'm jaded, disillusioned by

This heart that's turned to stone

Well, that's not true, there's a fire inside me

That won't leave me alone

But you have to ou understand, my fire needs air

The flame must burn free

Do you want control?

Do you want to put the fire out

Or the flame too bright to see?

What do you want?

What do you want?

What do you want from me?

What do you want?

Now I still love you but hold you I won't

Because you're free to what you need

And want you free

From the chain to the dungeon of your greed

Oh, tell me why, why couldn't I just accept and let it be?

Oh tell me what, when I want but for you,

What do you want?

What do you want from me?

What do you want?
