Take Me For Longing - Alison Krauss & Union Station

Don't choose me because I am faithful 
Don't choose me because I am kind 
If your heart settles on me 
I'm for the taking 
Take me for longing or leave me behind 

I would be for you a fire and a rainbow 
I would be for you an opening door 
Time and hard lessons are one kind of wisdom 
Try to forget them or love me no more 

I'm not asking your heart to believe me 
I'm not asking for promise or pledge 
Whatever the answer 
It's yes that's the question 
I am the fool dancing over the edge 

Don't choose me because I am faithful 
Don't choose me because I am kind 
If your heart settles on me 
I'm for the taking 
Take me for longing or leave me behind
