Feelings rush through me like
Nothing wants to be inside
For that long.
And yet, one thing has stayed the same.
When I watch you, I imagine us
Together, all alone.
All alone.
Every time I want to tune her out
I think about you.
Every time she nags me, tells me
That there's something I must do!
Sometimes it seems as if I'm all alone,
Like no one cares about me, they wish that I would go,
But when I think about you, I hold my head up high,
You seem to give me the courage to show
Who I am, who I want to be, who
All my friends see. The me that
No one else knows, only I do.
When I see you in my mind's eye,
I think about what I've been through.
And when something good happens, in spirit
You're there too!
The respect that I wish I'd get
Probably won't come.
For a while at least, I'll be
Ignored. And then some
Day, you'll reach out your hand;
You'll say you always loved me,
I'll say "You always can."
