Maybe I feel too deeply,
Maybe I care too much.
But what is life without loving?
What would it be without touch?
My heart is lost and confused,
My life is not what it seems.
For somewhere along the lines,
I've lost my hopes and my dreams.
I can't stop myself from caring,
Or putting someone's needs before mine.
So if my dreams seem to get postponed,
My mind tells me that it's fine.
It doesn't cause a problem,
To know my love is shown.
Until I'm crying out for something,
Feeling lost and all alone.
It's easy to say it's my turn.
To do something just for me.
Surely I've done enough,
I deserve some time to be free.
Then reality pushes through,
Responsibilities are all mine.
It was my decision to take them.
I'll get my turn down the line.
But day after day goes by,
And living seems such a chore.
But I cope and keep on pushing,
And die just a little bit more.
I love doing all the special things,
And sharing all that I learn.
Doing them makes me happy,
I don't expect them in return.
Just for a moment,
I need a loving touch.
To be overwhelmed with someone's love.
Is that asking way too much?
I want someone to look at me,
And not just play a part.
To share the love I'm feeling,
To see inside my heart.
It's not that I'm unhappy.
There's just something I can't find.
A love song keeps on playing,
But only in my mind.
I'll never give up hoping,
For somehow if I do,
The dreams that keep me going,
I know will not come true.
So for now I keep on dreaming.
Smile a smile, day after day.
Until the woman of my dreams
comes my way.
