thinking i'm just an empty frame hanging on a wall
you'd come and admire me
and remind me why you bought me after all
just when i've thought you'll never notice me
no matter how i dress up and slim down
you'd come and let me knowi've always been the beauty you've seen me to be
just when i've just started to mope and pout
because you rushed out the door without a word
you'd come back and tell me
where you've gone and how i should have been there with you
just when i've begun to feel small and guilty
believing you'll hate me for the wrong i do
you'd come and embrace me
and make me feel i'm as perfect as i can get
just when i've indulged myself into a pity party
and tell myself i'm difficult to love
you'd come and tell me
that you wouldn't trade me for all the riches in the world
just when i've resigned to thinking
i don't deserve the good things in life
you'd come and offer me
anything that would make my life fulfilling
just when i've relaunched myself into insecurity
and cower into the shadow that i create
you'd come and hold out your hand
and tell me it's lovely to see me step into the light
just when i've thought that love is like this
or love is like that
you'd come and kiss those thoughts away
and show that love is here and love is you and i.
