Reality Has More To Offer
Yes, I know I am not pretty, as for money I have none,
But, if love is what your after, well honey I'm the one
The games you play with others, will someday leave you alone
Why take love that isn't real or rarely even shown?
These woman who you sleep with; they don't care who they do,
Having sex with one last night then having sex with you.
For them the only difference is the name they say aloud,
My love could take you higher, we would dream among the clouds.
Maybe, I'm not pretty but the risk you take are few;
I'd love you for who you are, not for the things you do.
I won't take things from you that I myself wouldn't give
The dreams we share together are the dreams we would live.
So, if you think, I'm not pretty, the choice is yours to make
But, Reality Has More to Offer than anyone who's fake.

Time has eluded me and I seek someone to depend on.
I grow weary and need to rest my head.
I came across a faltered soul.

If I knelt before you
My eyes puffy and red from crying
Would you take me in your arms and comfort me?
If I knelt before you
