We´ve been over this before
And I´m sensing you want more
I don´t need someone who complicates me

And it´s not that I don´t care
But there´s some things I can´t share
Girl, I told you I´m not there

Girl, the world´s been down on me
I don´t need someone to own me
Girl, a lover is all I need
I´m the one who needs to hold me

[Chorus:]
since I met you, I´ve been hearing the same thing
And it seems it´s all we talk about lately
So before you go out on the limb
Don´t tell me it´s love
It´s that look in your eyes that betrays me
And the things that you do to amaze me
Don´t tell me it´s so

What I´m offering´s what you see
I´m giving you my honesty
And I´m sorry if it hurts to hear the truth

And maybe I will find in time
That all along girl, you were right
That I should have made you mine

But for now I still believe
That I don´t need someone to own me
Just a lover is all I need
And someone who´s gonna hold me

[Repeat Chorus]
