A Little Unfair
Love's Uneven Dance: Unraveling the Unfairness in Relationships
Lyrics
You want me to love just you
You want me to love only you
While you love your share
While you love others as well
Don't you think that's a little unfair
Expressing concern about the perceived unfairness of this arrangement
It's me that stays home
I'm the one who remains at home
While you stay gone
While you are often away
Till you decide to care
Until you choose to show affection or care
Don't you think that's a little unfair
Reiterating the perceived unfairness of the situation
I can't see how it can be anything for me
Expressing difficulty in seeing any benefit or reciprocity for oneself
What's mine is yours
Indicating a shared ownership of possessions
What's yours is yours
Emphasizing that what belongs to you remains exclusively yours
That's how you wanted to be
Describing an agreement where everything of yours is exclusively yours
And you want me to wait for you
You expect me to patiently wait for you
Till you decide to care
Until you decide to show concern or care
Don't you think that's a little unfair
Repeating the notion of perceived unfairness in the waiting
I can't see how it can be anything for me
Reiterating the challenge in finding any benefit or reciprocity
What's mine is yours
Restating the idea of shared possessions
What's yours is yours
Emphasizing the exclusivity of what is yours
That's how you wanted to be
Reflecting on the established arrangement of exclusive ownership
And you want me to wait for you
You expect me to patiently wait for you
Till you decide to care
Until you decide to show concern or care
Don't you think that's a little unfair
Repeating the notion of perceived unfairness in the waiting
