You know I searched and I thought
That you were more than just another pretty face,
And I looked so hard and I took so long
Before I made my choice.
I thought that there was substance,
That there were values that we shared,
I thought I’d found someone in you
But sadly I was wrong.
I need someone to listen, to understand and care,
I need someone no matter what, I need to know you’re there.
I need someone to love me, who’ll always put me first,
I need someone to hold my hand whenever I get scared.
I need someone to share my dreams, my hopes and aspirations
To pick me up when I fall down, to nurse me when I’m sick.
But mostly I just need someone to overcome the hurt.
I’ve been this road once or twice, I gave my very all
I committed in the biggest way and then it came undone.
I find it hard to understand, how love just peters out
But then I find it harder still to know just who to trust.
I’d like so much to give my heart and get one in return
I’d like to learn to trust again, to confide and share my soul,
I’d like to do so many things without the pain and hurt
But sadly it just seems I’ll do the same old things.
