World Listen to Me

July 28, 2000

When I'm sad, I wish you could be here
I wish you could hold my hands
And tell me I'm your man
I wish the world to listen to me
Hear my calls, and see my pain
Tell me if I'm going insane 
I wish all eyes and ears to be open
And if I'm crazy you can tell by my body motion
I wish the world to be open, if I'm to blame
But telling me I'm lame, I have no shame
I have a girl, and I wait to see
I hope she's still the one for me till the end of times
And I hope I can still make her mine
I plead to the world, and I hope you listen
If I tell you that I miss her, will you keep it a secret?
If I tell you that I need her will you keep it a secret?
If I tell you that I love her will you keep it a secret?
World listen to me, listen to my story of love
We once held hands, in the morning, till dust of dawn
I once went to prom, with her in her beautiful gown
We once watched the stars, on a gorgeous night
We once stood atop a mountain, screening the city light
I once held you from behind viewing the dark blue ocean sight
We once kissed, and held each other tight
So world you listen to me, and I'll listen to you
Beautiful memories, now empty feelings
So if I'm sad, will you help make me glad?
