Nobody Cares

who cares?
nobody cares
who cares?
nobody cares
who cares?
nobody cares
who cares?
nobody cares

I am nobody.

Time was when I lived with love
someone who adored who I was
Time passed and we went our ways
now there are just lonely days

love is a worship
when it is true
unconditional
given to you

love is a power
given away
total control
every day

And back and forth and back and forth and back and forth
like the best game we can play
love is a circle
sharing is love's way
sharing caring
sharing being
being aware
everywhere
love is amazing
what can we say
sharing everything
in every way
every day

who cares?
nobody cares
who cares?
nobody cares
who cares?
nobody cares
who cares?
nobody cares

I am nobody.

Time was when I lived in love
Nothing else could rise above
Time passed and love passed away
now there are just lonely days

days of longing
longing for love
days of wanting
wanting to live
days of hoping
hoping for love
days of being
without love
days of wishing
wishing for love
days of sharing
sharing the love
days of caring
caring is love
days of dreaming
dreaming of love

I live dreaming of being in love
I am being in love

who cares?
nobody cares
who cares?
nobody cares
who cares?
nobody cares
who cares?
nobody cares

I am nobody.

All We Need Is...

What happened to the innocence?
Is it buried in mistrust?
When there's too much pain inside
even the heart can rust

the layers of betrayal and
abandonment takes time
and even love can suffocate
the saddest of all crime

to forget how to trust
to forget how to love
to forget what life's about
and all we need is...
all we're dreaming of

when there's too much pain inside
the lips don't want to kiss
love becomes just routine sex
deeper sharing is missed

I can find a lover too
can even find a friend
security comes from deep inside
on that I can depend

but sincerity is rare
and trust is rarer still
honesty is all but gone
yet all we need is...
and I always will.

What happened to the innocence?
What happened to the trust?
What happened to the dream of love?
When did it go bust?

the layers of betrayal and
abandonment takes time
and even love can suffocate
the saddest of all crime

to forget how to trust
to forget how to love
to forget what life's about
and all we need is...
all we're dreaming of

when there's too much pain inside
the heart ceases to dream
life just goes through the motions
as sad as that may seem

and maybe this relates to you
sounds familiar or not
no one can remember what
they buried and forgot

but sometimes late at night alone
like a haunting refrain
something calls from deep within
and all we need is...
is it love or pain?

oh sometimes late at night alone
a glimpse of memory
almost comes back to my mind
all we need is...
will you sing it with me?

Not Tonght

But I just don't feel like feeling sad tonight

knock knock who cares
knock knock who shares
knock knock who's there?

some nights I don't even make it to bed
there are so many words left in my head
but I am tired of the way I'm sitting
(and tired of the way I'm shitting)
and I'm not shitting you
no really
it's not your fault you do not get the joke
maybe it was something never spoke
or a pig in a poke

But I just don't feel like feeling sad tonight
so I am laughing at all these words I write
even at this early hour
after an almost hot and steamy shower
I don't begrudge anything or anyone
like a cactus flower
daring life
in the desert sun

sometimes the way in is the way out
don't ask me what that is all about
all I can tell you is we are here right now
and if you want to care, I can show you how

though I can't make you drink
and I can't make you think
and I can't make you feel
I can be real

and if you want to care
and if you want to share
then just come and sit here
lean on me
just be still
you will see
if you will
give it time

all you have to do is leave your fears behind

make the choice to be here
become aware
you can care
you can share
and the answer will appear
it's a choice
use your voice
if you will...

just sit here
lean on me
and be still.
