I go for what I want
lofty goals tho they may be
Some things, they were not mine
I waited 'till they came to me
Others did not belong
to anyone I could see,
I reached and grabbed for them,
Mine! Lest they should flee

I'm talking moments here
both pieces of joy and glee
But none of what I have
cost more than all of free
The only thing I've got
causing my conscience to bleed
Is what I've now with him
that he used to give to she

I swear I didn't take
what wasn't mine to dream
I only let him fly
and perch now in my tree
He was leaving anyway
escaping for to flee
But I don't expect you
to understand my "We"

All I want is absence
of judgment's burning sting
And possibly acceptance
on the day I wear his ring
Though even if you don't
I know the birds will sing
And he'll be by my side
For happiness to bring
