What Use Am I

Your eyes don't see me,
Yet here I stand before you.
Your ears don't hear me,
Although I pledge my love for you.

Your heart can find no room for me,
Though mine is full with you.
Your thoughts spare nothing for me,
Yet I only think of you.

Give me one smile, one fleeting glance,
Spare me one sweet hello.
Show me kindness, don't be cruel.
Don't turn your back on me.

Tell me that I stand a chance,
Of gaining your affections.
Let me know you know that I exist.
Ignoring me is how you hurt me most of all.

What use am I without your love for me.
What use am I without you by my side.
What use is life without your hand in mine
What use am I at all.

Let me be the one to make you smile, to make you laugh.
Let me be the one you dream about.
Don't give your love to anyone unless it is to me,
When I call your name will you be there.

Be there when I close my eyes, and in the morning too,
Don't walk away and leave me here alone.
Can't you say you need me, I'll pretend it's not a lie.
And I will spend a lifetime needing you.
