Oh, please may I<br />
Be your bride today<br />
Surely I<br />
Oh yes, surely I<br />
Will mend your shirt today<br />
<br />
<br />
Pop goes the weasel<br />
He's such a teasel<br />
And a very naughty boy<br />
He got in so much trouble<br />
He suddenly became a bubble<br />
And a child's (little) toy<br />
<br />
<br />
Why are people<br />
So cruel?<br />
I don't understand<br />
Why<br />
Is there something<br />
They don't like?<br />
Is it something<br />
That someone did?<br />
Please help me<br />
Understand<br />
<br />
<br />
Here I am<br />
There you are<br />
Our minds are<br />
Straying too far<br />
You say I'm jealous<br />
I say you cheat<br />
We both want<br />
Each other to defeat<br />
We fight<br />
You hit<br />
I say we've<br />
Fallen in a pit<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22904013-5616461017284054812?l=rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HesseysPoems/~4/FKsedh18fWk" height="1" width="1"/>Rebecca Hesseyhttps://profiles.google.com/107916364505998902576noreply@blogger.com0Riverside, CA 92506, USA33.9415653 -117.373398933.8888733 -117.4523629 33.9942573 -117.2944349http://rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com/2012/02/may-i-oh-please-may-i-be-your-bride.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22904013.post-24499663395094864612012-01-29T13:58:00.000-08:002012-01-29T13:58:01.596-08:002012-01-29T13:58:01.596-08:00My eyes are red<br />
They start to swell<br />
They're huge enough<br />
So I can't see<br />
I start to dream<br />
I see puppies dancing<br />
Kittens barking<br />
Pink horses<br />
Brown elephants<br />
The alarm goes off<br />
And I have to get up<br />
For another day<br />
Of school<br />
The hours pass on<br />
And my stomach<br />
Tells me, Feed me!<br />
I say be quiet and<br />
Go to sleep<br />
I wish I could do<br />
The same<br />
<br />
<br />
When there's joy<br />
There's happiness<br />
It's in the air<br />
Grab it<br />
Put it in your<br />
Soul<br />
You will never<br />
Be desolate of'<br />
This wonderful<br />
Thing<br />
Pass it around<br />
To your friends<br />
Your family<br />
You will see<br />
How happy you<br />
Can always<br />

Why is life contentious<br />
Why does everyone<br />
Have to be pretentious<br />
In my heart I know<br />
I don't know who<br />
Else does<br />
There are so few<br />
We come and go<br />
Never finding<br />
Never knowing<br />
I could be asking<br />
<br />
<br />
Take me away<br />
Take me away<br />
From this state of mind<br />
Where can I go<br />
To get away from<br />
This state of mind<br />
<br />
<br />
Seems like<br />
You have<br />
Gone and<br />
Left me<br />
Never to<br />
Be seen<br />
Again<br />

She didn't know<br />
Who to pick<br />
So one day<br />

We speak<br />

Guys<br />

Everywhere<br />
But "R"<br />

What are we to do?<br />
What are we to do?<br />
I don't know about you<br />
I'm going to listen<br />
To the breezes of<br />
The wind<br />
The rush of the<br />
Ocean<br />
<br />
<br />
We go walking<br />
When the wind blows<br />
Your hair flaps<br />
I close my jacket<br />
Trying to get warm<br />
You see me struggle<br />
With what?<br />
My life or jacket?<br />

Headache<br />
<br />
<br />
I once had you to lean on<br />
And now you are gone<br />
What am I to do<br />
Now that I miss you<br />
I had a problem<br />
You came to me<br />
I tore you apart<br />
And now you are gone<br />
<br />
<br />
A woman is sitting<br />
By her door waiting<br />
Waiting for someone<br />
Who took her heart<br />
And loved her all<br />
Through the years<br />
Of their marriage<br />
She will see him soon<br />
Sooner than she<br />
Thinks; Knows<br />
They will be<br />
Together again<br />
<br />
<br />
I'm lost in a world<br />
All of my own<br />
No one can understand<br />
No one can be confused<br />
I'm trapped in a world<br />
All of my own<br />
No one can enter<br />
No one can leave<br />
I'm caught<br />
I'm surrounded<br />
By people who<br />
Don't know what's<br />
Going on in<br />
My mind<br />
Sometimes I feel<br />
Like killing myself<br />
There's only one thing<br />
Holding me back<br />
The Celestial<br />
Kingdom<br />

There was a man<br />
This man had a shoe<br />
The shoe had a hand<br />
The hand held mine<br />
Mine held yours<br />
Yours held the mans<br />
Now it's Saturn's turn<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Where are you?<br />
Not with me<br />
I wish you could see<br />
All I've gone through<br />
What is love anyway?<br />
It's just a word you wanted<br />
Me to say<br />
My heart broke that day<br />
I have nothing to say<br />
<br />
<br />
I see your light shine<br />
I see your face glow<br />
There's something about you<br />
I want to know<br />
You have a smile<br />
That brightens your face<br />
You can see it<br />
In every place<br />
You say it's from<br />
The gospel you teach<br />
You tell everyone<br />
Who is within reach<br />
There's the baptism<br />
And conversion<br />
But first of all<br />
There are the discussions<br />
Now I have the glow on my face<br />
You can see in every place<br />
<br />
<br />

See you<br />
In her<br />
Arms<br />
You don't<br />
Know how<br />
Much that<br />
Hurts<br />
I could<br />
Crawl into<br />
My skin and<br />
Hide<br />
<br />
<br />
I walk down the<br />
Beach<br />
I feel the sand<br />
Beneath<br />
It feels good to<br />
Escape<br />
If only for a little<br />
While<br />
I see long time<br />
Friends<br />
I see long time<br />
Relatives<br />
They start to fade<br />
Away<br />
And I'm brought back<br />
To reality<br />

What<br />
Can<br />
We<br />
Do<br />

Enjoy<br />

To you<br />
You are sitting<br />
Next to me<br />
In a room<br />
Full of people<br />
All of a sudden<br />
They are gone<br />
You face me<br />
I face you<br />
What are we<br />
To do?<br />
Then out of<br />
Nowhere<br />
I scream<br />
<br />
<br />
My life<br />
What's it for<br />
What am I to do<br />
I'm confused<br />
About everything<br />
There's no confidence<br />
There's no esteem<br />
Why do I have<br />
To be like this<br />
Why can't I<br />
Do anything<br />
Why am I scared<br />
I need a push, but<br />
I push it away<br />
I don't have<br />
A life<br />
I feel I shouldn't<br />
This doesn't make<br />
Any sense<br />
Should it<br />
Why should I care<br />
Why care<br />
About anything<br />
<br />
<br />
I can't fall<br />
In love with<br />
You<br />
You know the<br />
Reason for<br />
That<br />
People would<br />
Talk<br />
Your girlfriend<br />
Would beat<br />
Me to a<br />

Are you true<br />
Do you cheer me up<br />
When I'm blue<br />
Are you a friend<br />
Do you ignore me<br />
Do you say "Hi" to me<br />
And not throw me on the floor<br />
Do you love me<br />
(Or) Will you leave<br />
And tell your friends<br />
I'm your pet peeve<br />
Am I your sister<br />
Do you comfort me<br />
No, you just say,<br />
"Let her be"<br />
I'm ending my (mental) life<br />
Right here and now<br />
Because you always say<br />
"You look like a cow"<br />
So here's my farewell<br />
To you and friends<br />
So I guess this is<br />
My life to end<br />
(So) Please be kind to me<br />
And save me from dying<br />
<br />
<br />
We were separated<br />
Now we're together<br />
Forever<br />

As we danced<br />
We talked for a while<br />
I think I saw you smile<br />
My head went in a whirl<br />
Do you see me as<br />
A pretty girl?<br />
My hands were sweaty (I hope you didn't mind)<br />
I want you for my teddy (bear)<br />
The song came to a close<br />
Only heaven knows what<br />
The future holds<br />
As you said my name it was as if<br />
No one was around; I didn't want<br />
To come back to<br />
The ground<br />
For joy my heart leaped<br />
My bones, they went weak<br />
I wish for you<br />
My heart to keep<br />
Please don't break it<br />
<br />
<br />
She couldn't stand<br />
To lose him<br />
So she agreed<br />
For he knew<br />
He was what<br />
She needs<br />

Will I dance<br />
This lonely<br />
My whole life<br />

Let me get what I want</div>
<div>
I love you so dear</div>
<div>
I don't know what to do</div>
<div>
You probably wouldn't want me</div>
<div>
You probably don't care</div>
<div>
I want you</div>
<div>
You've broken my heart</div>
<div>
Once, twice, or more</div>
<div>
I can't keep on counting</div>
<div>
I need to know</div>
<div>
What your feelings are</div>
<div>
Should we go for it or no</div>
<div>
Do you love me</div>
<div>
Do you care</div>
<div>
I need you so much</div>
<div>
I wish I knew</div>
<div>
Should I try</div>

Tell me what to do</div>
<div>
I can't live</div>

Without you</div>

Not knowing what</div>

She wished it wasn't</div>
<div>
You</div>

They came so far</div>
<div>
From opposite worlds</div>

She was due</div>

Let me say what I want<br />
I hurt when you leave<br />
But it's you that I need<br />
I need to know where I stand<br />
Should I go<br />
Should I stay<br />
Do you want me<br />
Or out of your way<br />
Why am I here<br />
I ask myself<br />
There's no love<br />
There's no caring<br />
On my shoulders<br />
It's you that I'm bearing<br />
It's time to go<br />
I hear you say<br />
Have a very happy<br />
Happy day<br />
<br />
<br />
Hope someone<br />
Will save<br />
My day<br />
And show<br />
Me the<br />
Way<br />
<br />
<br />
In a mirror<br />
I see myself<br />
I'm tall<br />
That day on the<br />
Beach with him<br />
Is all I recall<br />
We were splendid<br />
Had time on our side<br />
Then one day<br />
Our relationship died<br />
I don't know<br />
What happened<br />
Why he changed his mind<br />
I do know that<br />
All day and night<br />
I cried<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22904013-8901395444481569656?l=rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HesseysPoems/~4/4d6JeK58EVU" height="1" width="1"/>Rebecca Hesseyhttps://profiles.google.com/107916364505998902576noreply@blogger.com0http://rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com/2011/09/for-once-just-once-let-me-say-what-i.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22904013.post-16689770485793296082011-09-11T13:29:00.000-07:002011-09-11T13:36:29.272-07:002011-09-11T13:36:29.272-07:00Why'd you go<br />
Why'd you leave<br />
I need you<br />
I need to be<br />
Loved<br />
You were my life<br />
My every thing<br />
I'm nothing now<br />
Why<br />
I cry lakes<br />
Streams<br />
Oceans<br />
Rivers<br />
My heart's in pieces<br />
Pieces<br />
Over the floor<br />
Earth<br />
All of my life<br />
I've been waiting<br />
You came<br />
You left when I<br />
Needed<br />
You<br />
Most<br />
Why why why<br />
How am I to<br />
Live<br />
Without you<br />
<br />
<br />
My last wish<br />
Would be<br />
For someone<br />
To truly<br />
Love me<br />
<br />
<br />
Familiar means knowing<br />
Do I know you<br />
You've been gone too long<br />
Don't seem familiar<br />
To me<br />
Shake my memory<br />
Til I hurt<br />
I need a band-aid<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22904013-1668977048579329608?l=rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HesseysPoems/~4/9nkSaFArW90" height="1" width="1"/>Rebecca Hesseyhttps://profiles.google.com/107916364505998902576noreply@blogger.com0Riverside, CA 92506, USA33.9415653 -117.373398933.8888918 -117.4523629 33.9942388 -117.2944349http://rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com/2011/09/whyd-you-go-whyd-you-leave-i-need-you-i.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22904013.post-50429294939323019392011-08-26T22:20:00.000-07:002011-08-26T22:20:56.736-07:002011-08-26T22:20:56.736-07:00This sure is a confusing life<br />
I don't know what to do<br />
I don't know what to say<br />
I don't know<br />
What's<br />
My own way<br />
I try to be myself<br />
But it just doesn't work<br />
When I do try<br />
People might<br />
Think I'm a dork<br />
I am always too shy<br />
I am always too quiet<br />
I always think that<br />
Inside<br />
There is always a fight<br />
<br />
<br />
Two strangers<br />
In a room<br />
They can't<br />
Know what's<br />
To happen<br />
They stare<br />
At each<br />
Other waiting<br />
For someone<br />
To move<br />
He does<br />
She starts<br />
To shake<br />
They meet<br />
And kiss<br />
<br />
<br />
I'm face to face<br />
With your face<br />
I see the twinkle<br />
In your eye<br />
The smirk on your<br />
Lovely lips<br />
What do you<br />
See on mine<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22904013-5042929493932301939?l=rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HesseysPoems/~4/QScc4cnjRss" height="1" width="1"/>Rebecca Hesseyhttps://profiles.google.com/107916364505998902576noreply@blogger.com0http://rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com/2011/08/this-sure-is-confusing-life-i-dont-know.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22904013.post-62346811406519013232011-08-12T12:27:00.000-07:002011-08-12T12:27:29.037-07:002011-08-12T12:27:29.037-07:00You were there<br />
I was there<br />
Too<br />
Everybody parted<br />
Us<br />
It sounded<br />
Like a <br />
Zoo<br />
Do you know<br />
About me<br />
I know<br />
About you<br />
Let's find<br />
Out about<br />
Each other<br />
<br />
<br />
Empty<br />
Space<br />
Vacant<br />
Blank<br />
<br />
<br />
Will you marry me<br />
I will marry you<br />
<br />
<br />
Find me<br />
Find me in your heart<br />

When there's no<br />

Where do I look<br />
Where do I seek<br />
To get my life in order<br />
I need your help<br />
I need some help<br />
I need<br />
Help<br />
<br />
<br />
To my fellow people<br />
I would like to address<br />
My feelings<br />
I don't know how to<br />
Express my feelings to people<br />
Because<br />
I don't know what they<br />
Would think about me<br />
That<br />
Is why I'm so quiet<br />
And everything else you see<br />
It's<br />
Hard for me to say<br />
"I love you" because it<br />
Makes<br />
Me feel out of position<br />
If I make you feel<br />
Like I don't like you<br />
I'm<br />
Really sorry, it's just<br />
That I don't know how<br />

Who needs love<br />
What is love<br />
What does it represent<br />
Do you have love<br />
Do I have love<br />
I don't have love<br />
No one wants to love me<br />
Love -- What is it<br />
<br />
<br />
I want to get out of this jail<br />
I want to get up and move<br />
I want to leave here right now<br />
Because<br />
I can't find anything called love<br />
<br />
<br />
My heart<br />
Putters when<br />
I think of you<br />
I think of us together<br />
Is it all in vain<br />

Rain on me<br />
To cover my tears<br />
The tears you created<br />
We used to have<br />
Fun<br />
Used to<br />
Now it's bitter<br />
Cold Dry<br />
You left<br />
Left me<br />
To cry for the world<br />
I have no heart<br />
You tore it out<br />
Smashed<br />
Trashed<br />
Crushed<br />
My brittle heart<br />
To pieces<br />
<br />
<br />
You are there standing<br />
By your self<br />
I feel an urge<br />
To ask you<br />
To dance<br />
My feet won't move<br />
Song is over<br />
I hate<br />
Myself<br />
Can I ask<br />
Will you say<br />
Yes<br />
In my dreams<br />
We are<br />
Together<br />
We laugh, have<br />
Fun together<br />
I wake and<br />
Wish it will<br />
Happen<br />
Can I ask<br />
Will you say<br />
Yes<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22904013-4546220663346888652?l=rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HesseysPoems/~4/UPW-2xIfXmY" height="1" width="1"/>Rebecca Hesseyhttps://profiles.google.com/107916364505998902576noreply@blogger.com0http://rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com/2011/06/i-wish-it-would-rain-rain-on-me-to.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22904013.post-85242802546110755752011-05-26T21:16:00.000-07:002011-05-26T21:17:29.938-07:002011-05-26T21:17:29.938-07:00I am a liahona<br />
I direct you<br />
To the Light<br />
It's up to me<br />
To stay on<br />
The right path<br />
If not, your<br />
Exaltation may<br />
Not come to pass<br />
<br />
<br />
I'm going through life<br />
With a blindfold<br />
It seems<br />
That I can occasionally<br />
Look through<br />
Then it gets a little darker<br />
I'm trying to break through<br />
But it's a difficult<br />
Task to do<br />
I sometimes get trapped<br />
In my own feelings<br />
Going through all<br />
The possibilities<br />
Before the choice<br />
I do but then<br />
I don't know why<br />
I'm here on earth<br />
It's been explained<br />
And I can explain<br />
But it's still not clear<br />
I'm not quite ready<br />
To see Christ<br />
The way I see it<br />
I need help<br />
But yet no one<br />
Seems to help<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22904013-8524280254611075575?l=rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HesseysPoems/~4/zNv2g-USfkE" height="1" width="1"/>Rebecca Hesseyhttps://profiles.google.com/107916364505998902576noreply@blogger.com0http://rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com/2011/05/i-am-liahona-i-direct-you-to-light-its.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22904013.post-50410161373417843362011-05-08T19:34:00.000-07:002011-05-08T19:34:30.071-07:002011-05-08T19:34:30.071-07:00So here it is today<br />
It's been raining<br />
Downpour<br />
When the sun comes<br />
Will my tears be gone<br />
Will I have to disguise<br />
We had good times<br />
Fun times<br />
Laughing<br />
Sadness<br />
It's been raining<br />
Tears mix<br />
When the sun comes<br />
Will my tears be gone<br />
<br />
<br />
Faithful<br />
Faithless<br />
Faithful<br />
<br />
<br />
Where do I go from here<br />
Where are you going from here<br />
Every choice takes its toll<br />
Every choice takes its risk<br />
Will we be together for long<br />
Will we be together only briskly<br />
I wonder how we'll turn out<br />
I wonder what will happen<br />
Will we be together for long<br />
Will we be together only briskly<br />
I've been uptight lately<br />
You've been uptight lately<br />
How will we turn out<br />
We'll have to wait and see<br />
Will we be together for long<br />
Will we be together only briskly<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22904013-5041016137341784336?l=rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HesseysPoems/~4/1WmqyTk5OGw" height="1" width="1"/>Rebecca Hesseyhttps://profiles.google.com/107916364505998902576noreply@blogger.com0http://rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com/2011/05/so-here-it-is-today-its-been-raining.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22904013.post-43528855512200794992011-04-10T20:13:00.000-07:002011-04-10T20:15:48.325-07:002011-04-10T20:15:48.325-07:002 YearsWhy couldn't you<br />
2 years younger<br />
Been born<br />
2 years later<br />
I'm here in my<br />
Misery<br />
Why did I<br />
Have to see<br />
You and get struck<br />
I never have good luck<br />
Who are you<br />
Thinking of<br />
Is she pretty<br />
As a dove<br />
Did you have to<br />
Look as good<br />
How many girls<br />
Are by your side<br />
How many hearts<br />
Do you have<br />
How many hearts<br />
Do you break<br />
When you look<br />
At me<br />
You probably don't<br />
Have a double take<br />
Why am I<br />
Such a fool<br />
To die for<br />
Guys like you<br />
When is my heart<br />
Not to be broke<br />
You have no idea<br />
It's you it took<br />
I need to get<br />
Over you<br />
And another<br />
Too<br />
I need someone<br />
Who can keep<br />
My heart<br />
Safe<br />
I need to hurry<br />
Before I go<br />
To tears<br />

You smile then fade<br />

Where would you go<br />
If you could dance<br />
Where would you toe<br />
If you could sing<br />
Where would you be<br />
I'm not a star<br />
Can't dance<br />
Can't sing<br />
But still want you<br />
Can I have you<br />
Still want you<br />
Wear my ring<br />
If you were a hit<br />
What would you think<br />
If people screamed to see you<br />
What would you do<br />
If you were the one to shine<br />
What, who could you not have<br />
I'm not a hit<br />
People don't scream to see me<br />

Still want you To be mine<br />

You're a hit<br />
You can dance<br />
You can sing<br />
I want you<br />
Can I have you<br />
I want you<br />
Wear my ring<br />
<br />
<br />
I couldn't risk falling again<br />
So I turned my head<br />
When I saw you pop<br />
Your head around<br />
The corner<br />
It was way too late<br />
I had seen you<br />
Your beautiful face<br />
Your slender but built<br />
Body<br />
Your welcoming smile<br />
Ohhh, that smile took<br />
My bones away<br />
That gorgeous smile<br />
Took my breath away<br />

You<br />
But you won't<br />
Listen and walk<br />
Away<br />

Though not with<br />
Me<br />
Your heart is now<br />
With your secretary<br />
She stole you away<br />
Right before my eyes<br />

People say "I'd die for you"<br />
I want to know why<br />
If they love you and are<br />
Loved by you<br />
Why would they die<br />

Forever and forever<br />

A daughter of God<br />
I came to this earth<br />
During the times<br />
Of mod<br />
I'm part of the plan<br />
To help the gospel grow<br />
I don't want to let<br />
My Saviour down<br />
For that I want Him to know<br />
Together you and I<br />
Can bring this to pass<br />
To share His love<br />
To show the world<br />
The greener side of grass<br />
We need to be faithful<br />
We need to be humble<br />
Or during our journey<br />
We may someday<br />
Tumble<br />
I want Him to be proud<br />
I want to be true<br />
So I can go about<br />
Preaching the gospel<br />
To all of you<br />
It'll be a long journey<br />
It should be hard fought and won<br />
We need to teach the world<br />
All about the Son<br />
I'll preach 'til it's over<br />
I'll travel 'til the end<br />
I want to show my love<br />
For Him and everyone<br />
To you to send<br />
I hope you will learn<br />
For this is true<br />
Before you were born<br />
The Christ and Saviour<br />
You once knew<br />
He loves you so dearly<br />
For your sins He paid<br />
That you might come<br />
Unto Him; Never let His light<br />
To fade<br />
He'll show you the truth<br />
He'll show you the way<br />
For when you see Him<br />
Oh! That will be<br />
Such a joyful day<br />
Be honest, be true<br />
For the path that is strait<br />
He is there to help you<br />
To love you when down<br />
To see you through the gate<br />
One day you will see<br />
How happy you will find<br />
By serving His children<br />
No guilt there will be<br />
On your mind<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22904013-4061598061310632541?l=rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HesseysPoems/~4/GLlpSjjImY4" height="1" width="1"/>Rebecca Hesseyhttps://profiles.google.com/107916364505998902576noreply@blogger.com0http://rebeccahesseypoems.blogspot.com/2011/02/i-am-daughter.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22904013.post-26744465430350943752010-05-22T11:10:00.000-07:002010-05-22T11:11:57.364-07:002010-05-22T11:11:57.364-07:00Though you keep turning me down<br />
I can't help falling in love with you<br />
Tell me -- What is (so) wrong that I gross<br />
You out<br />
I would change if I could if I knew<br />
Why am I not fit to be loved by you<br />
Tell me -- What is so wrong that I gross<br />
You out<br />
<br />
<br />
Hope for me<br />
Hope for you<br />
<br />
<br />
What is love<br />
Why is love<br />
What IS love<br />
WHY is love<br />
<br />
<br />
I called for your<br />
Phone number<br />
I wrote for your<br />
Address<br />
I cried without<br />
