It may not be the one you’re with
They may not have much love to give,
It may not be the girl next door
Or that nice boy on the first floor,
It may not be the friend you taught
Who helps you out when you’re distraught,
You may not know this one that well
But there’s someone who loves you.
It may not be the one you kissed
It may not be the one you’ve missed,
You may think someone is your friend
But then you find that they pretend,
When you are down and you are out
When you’re in tears, sad, and in doubt,
Life may feel like a living hell
But there’s someone who loves you.
They may not have much love to give,
It may not be the girl next door
Or that nice boy on the first floor,
It may not be the friend you taught
Who helps you out when you’re distraught,
You may not know this one that well
But there’s someone who loves you.
It may not be the one you kissed
It may not be the one you’ve missed,
You may think someone is your friend
But then you find that they pretend,
When you are down and you are out
When you’re in tears, sad, and in doubt,
Life may feel like a living hell
But there’s someone who loves you.
