I am not what you need
so I'll go on pretending
I might be what you want
I know you don't love me
I know you can't relate
but I can't stop loving you
I can't stop hoping you'll try
I am not what you need
or want
or see
or love
but I need you
I want you
you are all I see
and I love you
though I am not what you need

inside, where you think your deepest thoughts,
that's where I'm waiting and praying
the place in you that everyone has,
that contains your unknown dreams,
that is the place where I stand loving you

but I am not what you need
