lyrics

when I hold you in my arms,
I feel better about this life
when I think about you later
the pain of missing you's like a knife

when I think about the feelings that you give to me
I know you're everybody's special someone,
waiting to discover

when you tell it like it is
you tell me what I need to know
when I worry about the future
you tell me why I shouldn't be so

when I think about the loving that you show to me
I feel ashamed to be in love with you
and act the way I do

oh you make the way
for everyone around you
to love and to be loved
make them feel better

don't trade away
the love you hold inside
for the things that make you bitter
and begin to feel alive

when you asking me who loves you
I tell you everyone you know
but you say you don't believe me
'cause they don't let their feelings show

when I think about the truth of what they say to you
I know you're everybody's everything
every single time

talk to me on the phone
tell me I'm not alone
everything so bad you done is something everybody's done
the feeling doesn't make you, without the smoking gun

oh you make the way
for everyone around you
to love and to be loved
make them feel better

don't trade away
the love you hold inside
for the things that make you bitter
and begin to feel alive
