You were put here to be loved
There's no reason to ignore me
No reason to notice me

Believe when I say
That I need you always

All the things you haven't said
Keep me awake
I didn't even get your name
I've always been afraid
I always will be

Open your hand
Show me new feelings

Keep sleeping tonight
Dream of things that you need
Open your eyes slowly
See through in to me

Just feel
Don't think

Tell me what to do
Tell me who to be
If you could see yourself now
You'd see what beauty is to me [comments] => 2 [counter] => 145 [topic] => 2 [informant] => the_story_of_the_year [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
