Don't choose me because I am faithful Don't choose me because I am kind If your heart settles on me, I'm for the taking Take me from longing or leave me behind I would pay for you a fire and a rainbow I would pay for you an opening door Time and hard lessons are one kind of wisdom True to forgive them won't love me no more I'm not asking your heart to believe in me I'm not asking for promise or pledge Whatever the answer, it's yes, that's the question I am the fool dancing over the edge Don't choose me because I am faithful Don't choose me because I am kind If your heart settles on me, I'm for the taking Take me from longing or leave me behind
