G With an O-N-E

I'd like to say this for clarity.
When I give...
I give.
When I take...
There will be no mistake of it.

And...
When I do neither of them with you,
You need no longer question...
Or come to doubt my point of view.

That...
Along with everything else I share,
Will be none of your business.

A decided e'motion of mine,
Has been put by you into a de'motion mode...
With a mesaage that has left me touched,
For the very last time.

And I was glad to leave behind,
You and it and those arguments...
In a permanent split that is gone.
G with an O-N-E...
That's it!
You will not have me live a life of desperation.
My name is not Bennett,
To be in it like that!
