Take Me For Longing

1 b7 1
Don’t choose me because I am faithful
b7 1
Don’t choose me because I am kind
b7 1
If your heart settles on me, I’m for the takin’
4 b7 1
Take me for longing or leave me behind

I would be, for you, a fire in a rainbow
I would be, for you, an opening door
Time and hard lessons are one kind of wisdom
Try to forget them or love me no more

I’m not asking your heart to believe me
I’m not asking for promise or pledge
Whatever the answer, it’s yes that’s the question
I am the fool dancin’ over the edge

Don’t choose me because I am faithful
Don’t choose me because I am kind
If your heart settles on me, I’m for the takin’
Take me for longing or leave me behind
