i wrote a song, it starts off ‘i love you’
but i don’t know who to send it to
i’ve always traded my heart away
to anyone who promised to stay

but they never do, they leave me alone
with a blaring tv and a silent phone
i make excuses like paper airplanes
they don’t really work, they just drift away

does everyone face these these fears?
walk around hiding their tears?
is life really what we make it?
can i fake it?

they want to see smiles, and i should pretend
after all, the truth is a hurtful friend
if you make me laugh, you make me glad
but i can’t fix you when your sad

is there some place for those who still care
who feel the pain of others despair
for those who wait for love’s sweet glow
to find them, hold them let them know…
