Not My Circus - Pitiable Lover Lyrics

Since we never said we were thinking ahead
How do you suppose this is going to end?
Now that I know you're not gonna be my guy
Is it wrong to still want you by my side?

All I know is that I'm lonely
What ever happened to being young and wild and free?
I don't want to be your pitiable lover
Is it you who should be next to me?

When I can collect my thoughts I notice you're always there
But only too frequently our love is going nowhere
In my head and in my heart
I never wanted us to drift apart
But I can't stop myself from drifting
Maybe one day you'll pull me ashore
But for now the tide is shifting

All I know is that I'm lonely
What ever happened to being young and wild and free?
I don't want to be your pitiable lover
Is it you who should be next to me?

I know I've never given you enough time
And I'm not approachable when you're on my mind
Please understand
I can't treat you the way you want me to
This love just ain't true

All I know is that I'm lonely
What ever happened to being young and wild and free?
I don't want to be your pitiable lover
Is it you who should be next to me?

All I know is that I'm lonely
What ever happened to being young and wild and free?
I don't want to be your pitiable lover
Is it you who should be next to me?

Next to me
Who should be next to me
Next to me
Who should be next to me
Next to me
Next to me
Next to me
Next to me
Next to me
Next to me
Next to me
