Analysis of This isn't for you..



With you it's different, I feel completely safe
I kinda like the way, you can put a smile on my face
Something is happening, something feels right
Cause suddenly when you're not here..
It's just too long of a night.
Maybe I'm happy, it's something I was afraid to be
But maybe I couldn't be happy..
Because without you, I was just me.
There have been quite a few lovers so far
Most of them lustfully saught
I lost it...
    This isn't for you.
           Sorry.
