Lyrics Conditional - Laura Mvula

I′ve been doing the best I can
With all that I have
All I really needed was a little compassion

Another blow to the ego
A victim of conditional love
All up into my shadow
Oh, you make it look easy

When you took it all from me
Left me for empty
That familiar sorrow
Another blow to the ego

What kinda magic
Poof-poof and then vanish
Drop me at the ground zero
Another blow to my ego

I don't cry no tears for you
I needed love unconditional

Another blow to the ego
A victim of conditional love
Don′t live in the fiasco
Done giving in to a feeling

Taken up in a moonbeam
Woke up in a mid-dream
A provisional kindred soul
Another blow to the ego
A victim of conditional love

What kinda habit
Leave me here stranded
Think I need to fly solo
Break the chain to my ego

I don't cry no tears for you
I needed love unconditional
I don't cry no tears for you (cry for you)
I needed love unconditional

I don′t cry no tears for you
I needed love unconditional
I don′t cry no tears for you (cry for you)
I needed love unconditional
