    Pensive

    I don't want to be a fighter
    Unless you're the prize at stake
    I don't want to be a priest
    because your love I cannot forsake

    I don't want to be a sailor
    Unless you command the anchor
    I don't want to deposit time
    Unless you are my banker

    I don't want to be a singer
    Unless you hear my voice
    I don't want to be a decision maker
    but with you I have no choice

    I don't want to be writer
    until you inspire my pen
    I don't want to be a historian
    unless our past repeats again

    I don't want to wait in Heaven
    Hell is wherever you're not
    I don't want to be a beggar
    But your love is all I've got

    I don't want to be a runner
    If it put distance between us two
    I'd rather be a philosopher
    and constantly think of you...
