I'm Unwanted
Jasmine Guy · Other Songs - Jasmine Guy
I know you love me
I know you miss me everytime you say goodbye
but all i can do is dream at the same time
when i'm without you i'm only me
when i'm with you i'm who you want me to be
I know you love me
I know you miss me everytime you say goodbye
yeah yeah
it seems weird me being a teenager
i never thought i'd be this
i know you miss me everytime you say goodbye
but all i can do is dream at the same time
this is what i am going to sing out loud
to you this is what i'm going to let the whole world know
i've had secrets but then everybody just had to know them
soon or later never can live if they Find me unwanted
cause of something i never show
i could ever live if i had hate
i could never live if i was unwanted
i could never live without you
but i say
all i can do is dream
it seems weird me being a teenager
i never thought i'd be this
i know you miss me everytime i say goodbye
i could never live without you
i could never live if i was unwanted.
