I wish I mattered to you
Lula Jean Remick 1973 (New Hampshire)
My heart is shattered.
I’m in pain,
I don’t know how life,
Will go on again.
Time will move forward,
The world might move on,
But I don’t know how to do this anymore.
I wish my heart was something
that mattered to you
I wish that I was someone,
You wanted too.
I’m falling into a deep dark whole
I just wish I was someone that mattered to you
In you came in on a breeze
You stole my heart away.
I don’t know how you did it,
Always thought it was guarded well.
But here I am crumbling inside,
Never knew pain like I do tonight
I wish my heart was something
that mattered to you
I wish that I was someone,
You wanted too.
I’m falling into a deep dark whole
I just wish I was someone that mattered to you
Time will go on and life will too
I’ll try to live but it will never be true
How I could I trust
My own heart
When it let you in only to tear me apart
I wish my heart was something
that mattered to you
I wish that I was someone,
You wanted too.
I’m falling into a deep dark whole
I just wish I was someone that mattered to you
