If It Ever Was

Mitchell Hunter


nothing more to say 
nothing more to do 
nothing more to keep me 
from getting to you 

nothing more to fake 
no one left to blame 
nothing left for you to say 
to make me make me make me 

stay when you need me to 
leave when you want me to 
speak only when you're not listening 
breath only when you do 
die when i'm not with you 
is that how you picture us living? 
that's not love 
just your way of telling me my love is not enough 
i wonder if it ever was 

someone's got to say 
what is it you need? 
what do you expect from yourself 
and then take from me? 

i'm not one to blame 
but something has to change 
i've given all of my love to you... 
and there's none left for me 
and yet you still ask me to... 

stay when you need me to 
leave when you want me to 
speak only when you're not listening 
breath only when you do 
die when i'm not with you 
is that how you picture us living? 
that's not love 
just your way of telling me my love is not enough 
i wonder if it ever was 

i wonder how wonder why wonder when we got here 
i wonder how wonder why wonder when we got HERE..... 

with all the things you want 
with all the things you need 
have you ever stopped to think 
what you're asking, asking of me 
with everything i am 
with everything i could be 
i gave it all so you 
so you could have me have me... to 

stay when you need me to 
leave when you want me to 
speak only when you're not listening 
breath only when you do 
die when i'm not with you 
is that how you picture us living? 

don't tell me to... 

stay when you need me to 
leave when you want me to 
speak only when you're not listening 
breath only when you do 
die when i'm not with you 
cause that is not what i call living 
that's not love 
just your way of telling me my love is not enough 
i wonder if it ever was
