I cannot make you want me,
That will never do.
Your love has to come from your heart
Like my love for you.
I used to wipe the tears from your eyes
And ease away your pain.
When you tripped over life's problems
Time and time again.
You above all people should know
How fragile life can be.
Why can't you give me a ring
And say "Hello it's only me"
My calls have gone unanswered,
This I make quite clear.
If there are any problems,
I'd be right here for you dear.
As I look out to sea,
Out onto the horizon.
My only wish at the present time
Is the return of my "Lost " son.
That will never do.
Your love has to come from your heart
Like my love for you.
I used to wipe the tears from your eyes
And ease away your pain.
When you tripped over life's problems
Time and time again.
You above all people should know
How fragile life can be.
Why can't you give me a ring
And say "Hello it's only me"
My calls have gone unanswered,
This I make quite clear.
If there are any problems,
I'd be right here for you dear.
As I look out to sea,
Out onto the horizon.
My only wish at the present time
Is the return of my "Lost " son.
