My Wish

Sometimes these feelings get in the way,
Keep me from thinking clearly,
these feelings haunt me,
They bring back pain-filled memories,
I haven't healed from those wounds,
Haven't felt the same since,
These emotions overcome me,
and I try desperately,
To find someone to make them go away

(CHORUS)
I just want to hold your hand,
I just want to hear everything's gonna be alright,
I just want to look into your eyes,
And know you're looking back at mine,
I just want these tears dried and swept away,
I want to share my secrets,
and have my heart mended by time,
I want to have you close to me,
And I promise I'll never let you go,
I want someone in my life,
Someone to pull me through and keep me going,
I've been looking for someone,
Someone like you.

All I ever wanted,
All I ever needed,
Was someone to be there for me,
I just wanted these days to be worth their price,
Life had let me down,
Put me in my place,
And I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs,
Why can't there be someone there for me with open arms,
I know I may be undeserving,
But it's hard to hold back these tears,
To stay strong for everyone who needed me,
Harder than I can bare

(CHORUS)
I just want to hold your hand,
I just want to hear everything's gonna be alright,
I just want to look into your eyes,
And know you're looking back at mine,
I just want these tears dried and swept away,
I want to share my secrets,
and have my heart mended by time,
I want to have you close to me,
And I promise I'll never let you go,
I want someone in my life,
Someone to pull me through and keep me going,
I've been looking for someone,
Someone like you.

You're more than I could have ever hoped for,
Something I know I can't have,
I just want something to hold onto,
I just want you to feel the same,
There's nothing harder than smiling when you're dying on the inside,
When you just want to break down and cry,
I have lived in loneliness,
Waiting for someone,
Someone to change my life

(CHORUS)
I just want to hold your hand,
I just want to hear everything's gonna be alright,
I just want to look into your eyes,
And know you're looking back at mine,
I just want these tears dried and swept away,
I want to share my secrets,
and have my heart mended by time,
I want to have you close to me,
And I promise I'll never let you go,
I want someone in my life,
Someone to pull me through and keep me going,
I've been looking for someone,
Someone like you.

My heart bleeds,
But I stagger on,
My dreams result in wishes,
But wishes never come true,
What is there for me but this agony?
I never meant to hurt anyone,
I just wanted someone to care.

(CHORUS)
I just want to hold your hand,
I just want to hear everything's gonna be alright,
I just want to look into your eyes,
And know you're looking back at mine,
I just want these tears dried and swept away,
I want to share my secrets,
and have my heart mended by time,
I want to have you close to me,
And I promise I'll never let you go,
I want someone in my life,
Someone to pull me through and keep me going,
I've been looking for someone,
Someone like you.

I can only imagine what love is,
I've never known,
All I've got,
Is the suffering,
Please God take this pain away,
All I want is for you to stand beside me,
Even though I'd miss you still,
I just don't want to be hurt anymore...
