You’ve got something and it’s so good to see,
Something wonderful that I could not be.

You get taken all the time for a fool.
I don’t know why.
You’re so gullible but I don’t mind.
That’s not the problem.
And I don’t need anyone (3)________ me right now.

Except that, on anything else, that could maybe hurt the most. Yeah.
