All I ever wanted was a family
I wanted to be loved
I wanted someone to care
and I was scared
yes always scared
I didnt want to be alone
I didnt want to be locked out
or in the cold
I just wanted to love
and to be loved in return
she put her head down on my back
she was listening for my heart beat
but she only heard the ocean
she heard the ocean inside of me
and who can say why
she heard the ocean’s cries
the doctor said I would die
but two years later I am still alive
if just for her
if just for them
I will try if I can
I want to run again
like when i was young
they do too
but thats not for me to choose
I don’t know how much longer I will breath
and thats not something I want them to see
but it is true
and I know they can see it in my eyes
just as I saw it in hers
the night she heard the oceans cries
I wanted to be loved
and in the end I was
but when you love
you stand lose
so I’m glad
that at least I didn’t have to lose you
