You never really wanted me

Story behind the song
This is a song I wrote right after my divorce.
Lyrics
Well you can have me if that's what you want
But I can tell you want to be free
And I don't want to love you if you don't want to be loved
So just tell me do you want to be?
I'm holding on tight
to what it is that used to be us
I've been traveling light
Searching around for your trust
I wish that I had never wanted you
I wish that I had never felt
The way I sometimes still feel about you
The feelings that make my heart melt
I'm just holding on tight
Waiting for the time that you say
What it is that you think about me
And that you're not going to stay
I think I'll always want you
Somewhere in the back of my head
But now I've got to put you behind me
And no longer dwell on what you said
I was holding on tight
I was waiting for you to realize
That if you wanted me you could have me
But I guess I wasn't really a prize
That if you wanted me you could have me
But I guess I wasn't really a prize.
Well you could have had me, but I'm not what you want.
