I want you, to want me,
The whole me.
I want you to know everything,
Even the bad stuff.
But I'm afraid you'll run away,
Or worse, just want to be my friend.
I need someone by my side,
To hold my hand,
To tell me it'll be alright,
To keep me strong when I am weak,
To keep my head held high.
I want that someone to be you.
I want to call you,
But don't wanna scare you away.
I don't know how to do this,
Please help me I'm trying.
What if you decide you only want a part of me,
Not the whole me?
I don't want to be alone,
When I'm so close to having you.
Can't you just understand,
Without me having to say the words?
But I feel you pulling away,
And I'm not sure why.
I don't know what I did,
Or why your suddenly unsure.
I want you to come back to me,
I want you, to want me.
