I Need To Love

I need to love,

Love is far too easy for me to give.

But this world's too vast for me,

This life isn't mine to live.

I can't tell you much,

But I can tell you what I know.

I need to love,

I need to love just like I need to breathe.

Rejecting faith and magic never helped me,

But I can't make myself believe.

I can't tell you much,

But I can tell you what I know,

This life's not just mine to live,

I can't live all this life alone.

I need to be loved,

It's selfish but it's what I crave.

And I need to believe in something,

But I have never been that brave.

I can't say much as I don't know much,

But I can tell you what's on my mind.

I need to love, need to be loved,

But love is not easy to find.
