Song Description

A song about trying to stay free. Sounds a little like the Doors in pop mode.

Lyrics

I don't want to love you, I just want you near
I don't want to own you baby, let me make this clear
I'm not prepared to take love, not prepared to give
Only want to make love, only want to live
Then why do I think of you and nothing else all day
And put no other girls above you if I don't wanna be that way
Oh, no, no, no
I had my taste of freedom, it didn't taste too bad
I've had my fill of love girl and it only made me sad
I just can't take your sweet love, my heart turns to stone
You'll end up in the street Love; you'll end up all alone
You've got me floating high and stupid and wanting you all day
I thought I told that little sucker Cupid "better put that bow away"
Because I don't wanna be that way (4x)
I end up so spellbound, there's magic in the way you kiss
I act like a love-sick clown; it's tragic when it gets like this
(instrumental solo)
I don't want you to know girl, 'cause then you'd call my bluff
You might up and leave me honey when I ain't had enough
But then why should I care girl? I'm just warming up
Chicks like you ain't rare girl, fill my loving cup
Then why do my arms squeeze you like this is the last day
And would I spend time wondering how to please you if
I don't want to feel that way
Oh no I don't wanna feel that way, I don't wanna be that way,
I don't wanna act that way, I don't wanna be that way
I don't wanna be that way (4x)
