Do Not Endear Yourself to Me

Dear oh dear, do not endear yourself to me
And tease me with a care only for me to see
With the single color that dives into my eye
And speaking in sweet of things that I like
Do not smile at what nothing I have to say
Or get close, one touch before the end of day

Dear oh dear, do not endear yourself to me
For I will welcome the care you care to give
With a color given, my favorite to receive
And kindest words I'll accept as what makes me
I'll see your smile and smile, finally a smile
And your close touch, I by soul will embrace

Dear oh dear, do not endear yourself to me
Your chosen last day, you'll take your care from me
And garbage into lifeless gray, a color dead
Your words made of candy, no not a lasting taste
Apathy underlying all along, your smile will fade
A touch to you, I leper, a sickening disgrace

Dear oh dear, do not endear yourself to me
For I will be endeared, you as my only One
The One who kept this meager life up
A girl I thought who loved that I lived
And that I bothered to live at all
Only to be gravely bothered
By what once was your care
Dear
Oh dear
