From My Mind To Yours

Help Wanted

Cute on the outside

Problems on the inside

People see me and coo

And they take me with them

Though when they see the real me

They put me back where I started

So I'll sit there

Until someone comes along and wants me

And then the motions repeat

No place really felt like home to me but one

I thought that was where I belonged

I stayed there a long time

I was scared...

I didn't want to run away

That's what you wanted

I thought I was happy

I thought I never wanted it to end

Just her and I, me and her

Though one day something changed

And I ended up at square one again

I was happy

I was relieved

Then why did it hit me so hard?

I was no longer perky

When people walked by

I sat curled up in a ball

I tried to be happy

But it wasn't the same

Only the real person who truly wants me

Will take me like this

Broken and lonely

Then maybe I can be happy again

But until then I'll just put up

A Help Wanted sign

Then you came

And took me to the place I've been waiting for

Where have you been all my life?
