i gave you more assurance than i needed to i helped you out far

i gave you more assurance than i needed to
i helped you out far more than i needed to
i talked to you for far longer than i needed to
i pined for you for longer than i admit to
i waited for you for longer than i wanted to

i bet you question why i did that for you
i ask myself why i did that too

perhaps it's because i always see myself in you
perhaps i gave you the love i needed too
and someday i'll get it in return, in two-fold, too
