I guess I asked for too much

I guess I asked for too much
I guess I always did
Bet if you'd had known
You would have run and hid

Just wanted you to believe in me
Believe in me when others don’t
Know I am a man who'll be there
Be there for you when others won't

Just wanted you to love me
Be sincere and love me true
I guess that's something
No one will ever do

Just wanted you to talk to me
Talk to me about your day
Talk to me when alone at night
And talk to me when things aren't O.K.

Just wanted you to hold my hand
For not any reason at all
And in the middle of the day
Pick up the phone and give me a call

Just wanted you to give me a hug
Just surprise me out of the blue
Come up behind and hold me tight
That would be a wonderful thing to do

Just wanted to be important too
Not on the bottom of your list
Wanted you to think of me
When not with you and be missed

I guess I asked for too much
I guess I always did
Bet if you'd had known
You would have run and hid
