THERE'S ALWAYS HOPE... (I HOPE...)
I know what I can offer
I know how much I'm worth
I know I can love you as much
as anyone on Earth
I know that I have value
I can succeed on my own
the gifts I can give are priceless
so why am I alone
am I reaching too far
am I wanting too much
am I being too hard
am I fearing the touch
I know the power in my hands
I know the magic of a kiss
I know the danger of embrace
the double edge of bliss
I know that everything matters
and everyone is a prize
so why do I find no one looking
deep into my eyes
am I staring too deep
am I wanting too much
am I burning too hot
am I fearing the touch
I know I am reaching
the middle of this life
I want the meaning in the words
I now pronounce you husband and wife
but I want so much more
depth and certainty
I want the faith most give to a god
between my love and me
I have no doubt about my love
I have no doubt about my worth
I know I can love you more than
you've been loved since birth
I can give unconditional trust
that is so rarely known
but it seems to scare people away
so that's why I'm alone
I am reaching too far
I am wanting too much
I am being too hard
on those fearing the touch
I am staring too deep
I am wanting too much
I am feeling too hot
for those fearing the touch
I am ready to die in someone's arms
I am ready to live for someone's charms
I am reaching for someone who can be
reaching as far
wanting as much
being as hard
staring as deep
feeling as hot
as me
Reaching
