A little
You must like me a little
To keep me in your world
To hold me so tightly
To listen to my words
you must like me enough
To keep me for this long
To hold me so persistently
To listen without response
And yet, you do not like me
To keep me well enough
To hold me softly enough
To listen to me say
I want to keep you
I want to hold you
I want to listen to
Because I like you a little
