Cover art for Caramel lyrics by Suzanne Vega

I'm feeling it now.. Sometimes it's not a matter of selfishness or egocentric-ness but more of.. I know I'm not who he's looking for and I know I can't have him so I tell myself I'll walk away. But somehow I still think of him when I'm alone and I still long for him. It's a devastating feeling and it has nothing to do with selfishness. It's... self-preservation.
