I'M ONLY LOOKING FOR LOVE

When things seem against u
And all you want to do is cry
You want to give up on the world
And sit back, curl up and die

You think that I don't know the pain
That what I say is all a lie
Yes i know what it's like when pain sets in
And everyone says you don't even try

Try, what do they know about trying
How hard it is to live, no on can see
I�ve spent my whole entire life crying
Cause everything seems to come down on me

Things just fall into place for them
So I scream, you don't know, no you don't know
You think it�s only a small problem
All I do is try, I can�t help it if it doesn't show

My life just goes from bad to worse
People say, she can do why can't u
So what if she can, so what if she can
I say, I�m not her isn't that true
It doesn't seem to matter how hard I wish
The strength that I have just won't do

LOVE HAS LEFT MY LIFE
EVER TO RETURN
I MAY NEVER BE A WIFE
SO I'LL NEVER LEARN

I LOOK AROUND EVERYWHERE
I GO TO ALL THE HANG OUT PLACES
HOPING LOVE WILL FIND ME THERE
BUT ALL I'VE FOUND IS EMPTY SPACES

THE LOOKS BUT NO HEART
THE KINDNESS BUT NONE OF ABOVE
PLEASE DON'T CALL ME A TART
I'M ONLY LOOKING FOR LOVE

I've been hurt so many times
That I wonder why I continue on
Maybe it's because I believe in hope
Or maybe it's because I�m writing this song

No one will ever understand
I�m living not because I am strong
But because I don't have the guts to die
And so I will continue on

I hope that one day this pain
Will over ride my fear
So I can make that final step
Where I�ll cry my last tear

And there will be no tomorrow
Cause the end is drawing near
Please I beg you up above
And I know that u can hear

For everyday you make me stay
Will make me want this even more
So please won't you end my misery?
There�s not much to live for

And so I have given up
I�m ready to close that door
I fell I�ve wasted a life
Cause I surrender, pain's won the war

LOVE HAS LEFT MY LIFE
EVER TO RETURN
I MAY NEVER BE A WIFE
SO I'LL NEVER LEARN

I LOOK AROUND EVERYWHERE
I GO TO ALL THE HANG OUT PLACES
HOPING LOVE WILL FIND ME THERE
BUT ALL I'VE FOUND IS EMPTY SPACES

THE LOOKS BUT NO HEART
THE KINDNESS BUT NONE OF ABOVE
PLEASE DON'T CALL ME A TART
I'M ONLY LOOKING FOR LOVE

So I walk down to the beach
Cause that's the only place I want to be
The beach watches without judging
And it's the only place where I can be me

So if you're ever wondering where I am
You�ll find me looking towards the sea
There is no other reason but
Out there my thoughts truly are free!
