Love Song For Me (To my BFF)

I want to stay in touch with you much closer than we seem to do
but that just does not seem the way it was meant to be
I sometimes ask "what's wrong with me!" and "is there something wrong with me?"
for you should fall in love with me (and I don't mean romantically)
but just because I want to be so good to people just like you

The heart knows how much joy there is in helping someone and yet
why do I feel like I never quite got through to you?
maybe you depended on me too much and it got uncomfortable
or maybe I just asked too much from you I wish I knew

maybe we are just too much alike with the same weaknesses
maybe that is all in my mind
maybe we are more different than I ever imagined
maybe I'm just meant to be left behind
that is the only lot in life I seem to find

ok, I'll stop the pity party before it begins
I'm just feeling alone and wondering why
maybe we are much closer than I ever imagined
I just have too much time to wonder why
and I just don't want to be alone when I die

You know me as well as anyone around today
do you think anyone would be able to stay
with all my quirks and complicated thinking in my way
will anyone want me to be number one in their life's play?

There must be someone who could appreciate me
There must be someone who could put up with me
There must be someone who would fall in love with me
There must be someone who would want to stay

Am I too intelligent or just not smart enough?
Is it that I have no common sense?
Am I not to be trusted enough to be a partner?
My relationships are all in the past tense

Am I too demanding (if so, what am I demanding?)
Am I too easy to be taken for granted?
Am I just made for the friend zone for some reason (what's the reason?)
Why do I leave no one enchanted?

Maybe I don't project all the love I feel inside?
Maybe I don't seem as happy as I am?
I love life and everything and me and everyone
Why does no one seem to understand?

I can see the pain and suffering in every human heart
I can feel the devastation people to to each other
I can handle it but maybe nobody can today
Does my empathy scare people away?

I just want to share this life and love and everything
with someone who wants to share life and love with me
Will I ever find the one who can give the way I do?
I just don't want to die lonely.

There must be someone who could appreciate me
There must be someone who could put up with me
There must be someone who would fall in love with me
There must be someone who would want to stay
If you see her will you please send her my way?
