Lyrics for Half-Gifts (Acoustic Version)
It's an old game, my love When you can't have me, you want me Because you know that you're not risking anything Intimacy is when we're in the same place at the same time Dealing honestly with how we feel And who we really are That's what grown-ups do That is mature thinking Well, I'm still a junkie for it It takes me out of my aloneness But this relationship cannot sustain itself Intimacy is when we're in the same place at the same time Dealing honestly with how we feel And who we really are That's what grown-ups do That is mature thinking I just have to know How to be in the process of creating things in a better way And it hurts, but it's a lie that I can't handle it I still have a world of me-ness to fulfil I still care about this planet I am still connected to nature And to my dreams for myself I have my friends, my family I have myself I still have me I have my friends, my family I have myself I still have me
