I can't do this on my own
I need someone in my life
To tell me everything is going to be okay
To tell me everything will be alright
I have searched the world for true love
Came up empty with all of my attempts
No one wants a guy like me
I'm really hard to take at times
With all of my shortcomings
My selfishness and the like
But I'm loyal to the end
And have a big heart
My friend

Is there anyone out there
Who can change a guy like me?
I'm willing for the sacrifice
To do away with what I need
Is it all just a dream waiting to unfold
To came into form with all of it's merits?
I seem to only find the crazy ones
The ones who aren't good for me
My heart can only take so much
Than it's off to the void
To hold back the love I can give away
