I Need Someone

I need someone to hold me
and kiss away the tears
to keep me company
and chase away my fears

To make better memories
and to help me forget
those horrible moments
and the pain you still inflict

I need someone to help me
make it alright
give my life some color
so it's not so black-and-white

to love me for who I really am
so I'm not afraid to be
true to myself
I want you to like what you see

to look past my problems
see past my flaws
put my puzzle together
help me find the missing pieces to my jigsaw

when I'm feeling bad
and I have to break down
I want to know
you'll still be around

I need someone to help me
pick up the pieces to my life
to help me feel better
and keep me away from the knife

I need you now
much more than ever
to lay with me here and hold me
much longer than forever
