All That She Wanted

Feeling alone in this world Her head dropped into her hands The tears began to fall Feeling hopeless, she didn't understand So much love in her heart She wanted to share Nobody's calling Nobody's visiting Nobody cares Just once in her life She wanted just one person to reach out Offer an invitation Let her know they were proud She didn't wish to be famous Her soul much to shy She didn't want riches At least not the kind that money buys Just one simple I love you I want you to know I am here You're a really great person Words of compassion, words that mend a soul
