You're seeking something you already have
Something I gave you long ago
Something that you long for
If only you could know
How much you really mean to me
How much you make me happy
How much I really love you
But I know you can't
So I'll push forward
And give you reasons why I care:
I care because you're all alone
At least, it seems that way
Your friends don't seem to help much
They can't find things to say
I care because I love you so
A feeling that won't leave me
I don't want you to hurt yourself
But I understand you are free
I care because you're hurting
And you turned to me for help
It means a lot, that you would come
To me when you needed to talk

So baby girl
You have my approval
You always have and will
And if you think you don't
Just trust in what I say
Because I wouldn't help you out
If I didn't love you this way.
