That Special Someone

I don’t want to be alone
Need someone to call my own
Someone to hold me tight
And say that it’s alright

Someone to talk with me
Someone to walk with me
Someone to laugh and smile
And be with for a while

I need a hand in mine
To show that it’s just fine
Two arms to hold me tight
Throughout the long dark night

A special someone who
Will say that I love you
And I can say it back to
Like lovers ought to do

I don’t know where you are
You may be near or far
But one day we will surely meet
And my life will be complete
