Love...Me 1998 (Right Click To Stop Midi)

wishing

more than a name

Take a close look please, who do you see?
A friend, a loved one? It may even be me.
Because of my illness, I知 no longer the same,
But reach out and touch me, I知 more than a name.
As you go about your activities each day,
You may be tempted to think I知 just in the way.
You hustle and bustle, and run here and there.
You池e too busy to smile, or just stroke my hair.
I may not notice the frown that you give,
Nor be aware, you have your own life to live.
I too had a life, filled with laughter and tears.
We made wonderful plans for our later years.
And now here I am, in this world of my own.
I知 lost and I知 frightened, and feel all alone.
How I would like a soft gentle touch,
A kind friendly smile, I知 not asking for much.
Take a close look please, who do you see?
A friend, a love one? It may even be me.
Because of my illness, I知 no longer the same,
But reach out and touch me, I知 more than a name.
