• he says he thinks she's beautiful
    but she doesn't understand
    she thinks nobody loves her
    because she thinks nobody can

    i don't know why she can't see
    she's everything she needs to be
    i wish i could just hold her tight
    and tell her everything will be alright
    and so i lay awake and wonder
    why she doesn't seem to see
    that she's somebody to me

    he opens his eyes and sees her
    standing over there
    he wonders what she's thinking
    but then he sees her stare
    there's tears in her eyes and a note in her hand
    he tries to go and talk to her
    but she leaves just as he stands

    and so he sits alone and thinks
    about what he'd say to her
    but when she sees him all alone
    she asks if he's okay
    and then naturally
    as natural as it is to breathe
    he lies to her and says that he's okay
    her gives her a smile and turns away
    but nothing's ever okay

    i don't know why she can't see
    she's everything she needs to be
    i wish that i could show her
    and tell her how i feel
    but every time i try to, i think "what if i fail?"
    so i still lay awake, but i don't wonder
    at how she can't see
    she's somebody to me

    i wish that i could make her see


    she's everything to me
