What Would It Take?
What would it take for you to really see me?
To know me, to feel me, to hear me?
I talk, I'm there, yet I'm invisible.
My heart is breaking, crying, bleeding.
What would it take for you to love me?
I share, I give, yet get nothing in return.
What would it take for you to forgive me?
I plead, I beg, yet you don't hear me?
What would it take for you to hold me?
I ask, I want, yet you don't feel me.
What would it take for you to make love to me?
I tell you it's yours, I scream your name, yet you show me no love.
What would it take for me to let go?
You letting go first.
To know me, to feel me, to hear me?
I talk, I'm there, yet I'm invisible.
My heart is breaking, crying, bleeding.
What would it take for you to love me?
I share, I give, yet get nothing in return.
What would it take for you to forgive me?
I plead, I beg, yet you don't hear me?
What would it take for you to hold me?
I ask, I want, yet you don't feel me.
What would it take for you to make love to me?
I tell you it's yours, I scream your name, yet you show me no love.
What would it take for me to let go?
You letting go first.
