If i could give you, a piece of me
That you could always have to look back on --
When the world just makes you want to scream,
And you feel like you have no one,
I wish there was this piece of me that you could have,
And just holding it would be like holding a hope,
So strong and beautiful,
That you could get through anything.
If i could give you, all those things in your past
That you didn't have,
I would give you holidays filled with family,
Nights filled with peace,
And promises you could believe in.
I wish i could be that one person,
That you can always tell anything to,
Whom you can always trust, and who will always be there,
Waiting anxiously for your return
Ready to pick up where we left off.
If i could give you, a reason to put on that uniform,
With a smile across service bar,
A little note in your book,
A stolen kiss amongst the hanging coats,
I would be around every corner,
Waiting to flirtatiously skip past you,
To bring a momentous smile to your soft lips,
And a little bit of brightness to your frenzied day.
If i could give you, a reason for the things i do,
A justification for why i am the way i am,
Maybe it would tell you that i'm just a girl,
And girls have a need to be at the center of your world,
Even when you have your mind in other places
We spend hours primping ourselves to catch a look from you,
Wanting so badly to be adored
(and we watch too many chic flicks)
Sometimes, even sitting right next to you,
We can feel unwanted, and unattractive, and unnoticed...
I can't give you those reasons...
but i can ease your mind by saying,
we just want to be close to you... closer than we can ever get.
If i could give you, even part of what you've given to me,
It would take me a lifetime to replace the smiles,
The moments written down diligently in my diary,
For always to keep,
The fond moments i look back upon at least every other second,
The hope you've given me,
The hands you've held me with when i fall apart,
And the delicate way you always manage to piece me back together,
And most of all, the memories you've given me,
to have... always.
If i could give you, all of me,
I would in a heartbeat,
All of sunshines and rainbows,
All of my pats on the back and star-studded moments,
All of my dreams --
I would give you all those things,
And every good thing i ever feel, you would be part of that
I can't give you much,
But there are these times,
So precious and many,
Where i look over at you, and my heart just wants to burst
And i just want to tell you how much i love you...
But something stops me,
And all i can give you are those breathless moments,
Where time stops, and my heart stops, and i can't find any words...
But i know you feel it...
That you could always have to look back on --
When the world just makes you want to scream,
And you feel like you have no one,
I wish there was this piece of me that you could have,
And just holding it would be like holding a hope,
So strong and beautiful,
That you could get through anything.
