As I looked over at you yesterday
I saw the lost look in your eyes
I felt the pain that you were feeling
The one you were trying to disguise
I wanted to reach over to you
Make you feel that all would be okay
I could not bring myself to do it
Cause my friend life is just not that way
Sometimes we don't get want we desire
Things don't always our way go
We pick ourselves up and brush it off
Cause in life's boat we just have to row
You must remember that you are loved
And you only need to look for a few
To find that you hold something special
For people who simply appreciate you
So be patient and quit that wanting
Cause you are all you will ever need to find
Then for the ones who just don't see you
You will find strength to leave them behind
When you read this you will know that this is for you
And then you will probably cry a tear
But what I really want you to remember
If you need me I will always be here
