It's All I Want
(inspired by a story)

I can't see what I am to you.
I can't read your mind,
I just want to be loved,
to leave loneliness behind.

Maybe we could try it together
maybe we should try forever,
but I know I would ruin it,
because forever for me,
always turns out to be never.

I shouldn't be thinking of you
but everytime I try to be free,
your face comes into my mind,
enclosing you all around me.

It's petty, yes I know,
but I want you to want me,
to tell me that you feel the same,
and let me know,
that forever we'll be.
