Elmer’s

I want you so bad, but it makes me so mad.

I want to touch you, to feel you,

So much that I unpeel you.

Layer by layer, but it doesn't seem fair.

I've wanted you here for nearly 10 years,

Beside me, before me, as long as you're for me.

I try and I try, but it doesn't make sense why

You tease me, you please me, do all but seize me.

I love you as much as the day we met,

but sometimes it seems like you almost regret

the feelings you have because they are true

So much that when you're with me, you come unglued.
