Lyrics
Deprivation -
1st Verse: Time is short and I enjoyed your time
But you love is deeper than mine
You won't allow me time to grow
Into a relationship that might be
Where God had planted the seed
You're desperate because of your needs
And I . . .
Chorus: Feel you only because you need me
A need so strong--
You're inviting me into your arms
Wanting something, I can't do
Give all the love that's been deprived you
2nd Verse: Love desired now it's been fulfilled
Yet you fight against my free will
You won't allow our love to be free
Scared it will leave you, once again lonely
With a broken heart that will never mend
You won't accept our love as friends,
And I. . .
Chorus: Feel you only because you need me
A need so strong--
You're inviting me into your arms
Wanting something, I can't do
Give all the love that's been deprived you
Bridge: What is love if patience won't do?
You respect me, and I respect you
When you want what is pleasing to the eye
You're forget instructions from on high
Chorus: I feel you only because you need me
A need so strong--
You're inviting me into your arms
Wanting something, I can't do
Give all the love that's been deprived you
