All I ever really wanted
Was somebody to care
Someone that would look at me
And say, "don't worry babe, I'll always be there."
I want someone that can see me cry
And not even have to ask why.
I want someone to hug me at the end of the day
to wrap their arms around me
And know just exactly what to say.
I want someone to put me first, before anyone else
I want someone I can put first, before even myself.
I want someone who knows how I'm feeling; without having to ask,
Somebody who sees caring for me, as a gift and not a task.
I want someone who makes me smile
And when I find it hard to smile they tell me
Everything will be okay (and I'll believe them)
I want someone who calls me late into the night
Just to see if I'm okay
Someone who makes sure I'm still breathing
After my hardest day.
I want someone who listens to what I say
But also to what I don't say.
I want someone who holds my hand
And will never, ever let go
Even as things change
And each of us will grow
But really, in all truth and honesty,
All I ever really wanted was somebody to care
Somebody that would look at me and say,
"Don’t worry, I'll always be there."
