A Better Idea

Everyday we learn
More about each person
And now I know
So much more about you
I know what makes you
Act the way you do

If a better idea
Was what I wanted
I’ve now got it
If I wanted reasons
I’ve got those too
But now I have
More questions

Everyday I try
To learn more about you
Now that I know
So much more, what do I
Do to help you out?
Watch me with a keen eye

If a better idea
Had pushed you away
I’m now trying
To get you back here
Because now I
Have found even
More questions

Why do you feel so?
How is happiness bad?
Now that I know
So much more…
Do I help you out?
You seem wary of me

If a better idea
Was what I wanted
I’ve now got it
But I need you here
Not running from
Me. I’m no threat
I am help

Everyday I’ll try
To get you comfortable
Talking to me
You need someone to help
Someone to listen
Don’t be wary of me

If a better idea
Would help me out here
I wish you’d give
Me a chance please, dear
Don’t run from me
I promise, no
More questions

I will listen
No more questions
Just listen
No more questions
A better idea
But no more questions
I will listen
