Dream on

I've been waiting on my own
For a lifetime and it shows
Got the way I seem to
Keep my distance from you
Baby, there's no need to go
Prove you love me when it shows
And the ones before you
Make it hard to love at all
Every time I try to make myself seem small
In the arms of others who never loved me better
All the ways I tried to make myself less selfish
It never made them stay
And I can love me like this, I can love me like this
So can you call all your friends, baby
Tell them to find other plans
'Cause I need you tonight, baby
I need to know that everything's alright, baby
I need to know that everything's alright
I've been waiting for someone who will cure what I've become
Got the way I seem to need nobody but you
Maybe there's another way I can never make you stay
And the ones before you never loved me like you do
Every time I try to make myself seem small
In the arms of others
They never love you better
Every time I tried to make myself seem empty
It never made them stay
It only made them hurt me
Only made them hurt me
So can you call all your friends, baby
Tell them to find other plans
'Cause I need you tonight, baby
I need to know that everything's alright, baby
So can you call all your friends, baby
Tell them to find other plans
'Cause I need you tonight, baby
I need to know that everything's alright, baby
So can you call all your friends
Tell them to find other plans
'Cause I need you tonight
I need to know that everything's alright
I need to know that everything's alright
