Complicated

Maybe I was just too complicated
why else would I've contemplated 
the idea of being together
then trying to figure out how to get her
whereas before 
I had her
or at least I had the opportunity 
I talked about the need for more unity
and could've helped build a union
but maybe I was just too complicated
why else would God have confiscated
my blessing that day
by taking away those lips
that took my breath away 
leaving me with nothing to say
only the sound of my knees
as they hit the ground
screaming please
come back 
I may have been faithful 
but in fact had I kept my faith full
and my feet firmly planted
I wouldn't have taken her for granted
so what's complicated about that
