Real Love

He tells me, "it's okay tell me how you feel",
But I hesitate because he isn't even real
He likes to play games with my heart,
But I just stay shut and play my part.
I just wish he could see that he should be with me
He should hold My heart like he means it,
But instead he only grabs it when he sees fit
I try to walk away, but he has the death grip
Why won't he just love it when I tell funny to jokes
Or want to come meet my folks
Instead of grabbing my butt and kiss me on the cheek
Tell me he'd do anything for some, even rub my feet
I wanna lay my head on his chest and make him feel his best
Let's just eat some food and talk
Not just stare at my back and imagine what you'd do while I walk
Then I fall for his trap and blame myself cuz its all my fault
That's not how you treat lady
Grab her by the hand and tell her "I love you, baby"
Hold her in your arms, let her cry, and wait for her to tell you why
Not see her sass and tell her bye
Tell her the truth when you're wrong, you don't have to lie
Deal with her foolishness by killing any bug, even a fly
It's okay to get mad at her once in a while
Every relationship has its faults on file
Just for the record, you don't really need them
Lock them up tight in a far away den
That was back then, look and see the now
You expect a long relationship but don't know how
You accuse each other of wrongs? That's just foul
You should fight together because misery loves you
And thinks everything is great except you two
They'll tell you that you can find better, but you can't live without her
Yet you trust to the message but not trust the messenger
Stick together like gorrilla glue because she'll never find anyone like you
Be the relationship that's kept by few
Nothing makes envy madder than a couple who can never lose
