I had time to kill while waiting for a ferry! (I used to live on an island) I was playing with ideas for a song when "Unconditional Love" came to mind. I quickly decided "Conditional Love" was a way cooler subject! I had the song written within the twenty minute ferry ride, tune and all! I love it when they fall together like that!

Tell me this is truly
worth the things I know you have to do
There's more to life than jewelry
look at what this life has done to you

I know you don't believe it
tell yourself you're such a lucky girl
You'd rather take than leave it
look at what it's doing to your world

But you don't want to see,
can't you see you're blinded by:

(chorus)
Conditional love
You've got your reasons and rhymes but only for
Conditional love
taking in all that you can then you take some more
Conditional love
It doesn't matter as long as you get what you can
Conditional love
You've got a wallet to hold you, instead of a man

Your life must be easy
got your car, you've got your fancy house
You look down when you see me
Is that a tear that stained your pretty blouse
You've got your fancy diamond
Now everyone must surely envy you
'cause they can't see you cryin'
How much would they envy if they knew

But you don't let them see,
can't they see you're blinded by:

(chorus)

(chorus) this man

instead of this man
