the song, "Sweet Thing" by Rufus, has been in my head. If I liked GD more than I did, it'd be so apt. The song is so melodic, soulful and longing. The lyrics, without music accompaniment, don't do the song justice, but here they are:
I will love you anyway
Even if you cannot stay
I think you are the one for me
Here is where you ought to be
I just want to satisfy ya
Though you're not mine
I can't deny ya
Don't you hear me talking baby?
Love me now or I'll go crazy
[CHORUS:]
Oh sweet thing
Don't you know you're my everything?
Oh sweet thing
Don't you know you're my everything?
Yes, you are
I wish you were my lover
But ya act so undercover
To love you child my whole life long
Be it right, or be it wrong
I'm only what you make me, baby
Don't walk away, don't be so shady
Don't want your mind, don't want your money
These words I say, they may sound funny, but
[CHORUS:]
Oh sweet thing
Don't you know you're my everything?
Oh sweet thing
Don't you know you're my everything?
Yes, you are
Yes, you are
You are my heat
You are my fire
You make me weak with strong desire
To love you child my whole life long
Be it right, or be it wrong
I just want to satisfy ya
Though you're not mine
I can't deny ya
Don't you hear me talking baby?
Love me now or I'll go crazy
You're the heat, you are the fire
You're not mine, I can't deny ya
Don't you hear me talking, baby?
Love me now, or I'll go crazy

I love the Rufus and those lyrics and will now go seek out the song. I felt that way about somebody who didn't love me back and boy does that suck. I'm glad you aren't that deep into GD because after all the things I've read from your blog, he seems very petty, passive-aggressive, unforgiving and obviously not the right person for you. Good luck!
Whatchamacalit, you have great taste in music - I've only just discovered Rufus. And I love your character assessment. Thanks for your words of encouragement!
