Asking Too Much

i want somebody who sees the pointlessness
 and still keeps their purpose in mind
 i want somebody who has a tortured soul
 some of the time
 i want somebody who will either put out for me
 or put me out of misery
 or maybe just put it all to words
 and make me say, you know
 i never heard it put that way
 make me say, what did you just say?
 i want somebody who can hold my interest
 hold it and never let it fall
 someone who can flatten me with a kiss
 that hits like a fist
 or a sentence, that stops me like a brick wall
 because if you hear me talking
 listen to what i'm not saying
 if you hear me playing guitar
 listen to what i'm not playing
 and don't ask me to put words
 to all the spaces between notes
 in fact if you have to ask, forget it
 do and you'll regret it
 i'm tired of being the interesting one
 i'm tired of heving fun for two
 just lay yourself on the line
 and i might lay myself down by you
 but don't sit behind your eyes
 and wait for me to surprise you
 i want somebody who can make me
 scream until it's funny
 give me a run for my money
 i want someone who can
 twist me up in knots
 tell me, for the woman who has everything
 what have you got?
 i want someone who's not afraid of me
 or anyone else
 in other words i want someone
 who's not afraid of themself
 do you think i'm asking too much?
