Song Description
We tend to push away the things we're grasping for.
The subject is a girl who wants to leave as soon as I start "wanting" her. And when I don't want her she stays. The lesson is to not want things, but instead- prefer them. If you use that philosophy things come you're way more easily.

Lyrics
She knows that I need it, she knows I need to play
As soon as I want it, she takes it away
As soon as you want, what you want goes away
Goddamn! When you don?t want, you know that?s when it stays
You know I can love you can love you all day.
But when I start to need you, is when you sail away.
The more I grab, the more I push away.
When I start to need you, is when you sail away.
I?m cryin? cause I love you.
And love you I must
But is it need, is it love, or is it lust?
Is it lust, baby?
Well if it is, that?s love to me, and love I must
I don?t need to need you
Love has a different meaning to me and you
What might be sane, may not always be true
Love?s definition is not always the same, what is true may not always be sane.
