My hurting heart longs for a friend
With whom it can slowly mend
One who will listen to my sadness daily
Who will often ask 'how have you been lately?'
Someone for me to cling to
For my tears to sing to
So the sadness deep inside
No longer needs to hide
A friend not afraid of the time
It will take this heart of mine
To become empty of it's tears
And find hope in future years
Strong enough to endure the pain
As my soul cries out in vain
For there is no hope it has found
That another would ever stick around
That someone would ever say:
'let me be your wife
So you needn't fear loneliness
For the rest of your life'
