If I Were What You Wanted

I would cradle you if you'd let me
And I would kiss you if you'd want it
I would wipe your tears away
with my thumb against your cheek
if you were ever feeling sad
I would whipser in your ear,
"I'll never leave you"
I could hug you in my arms
I would never ever hurt you
You could take my word on that

And sometimes all you need is a friend
Or simply just some love
Well, I could be that friend, love
And I could give you love

I would sing you a sweet lullaby
Or tell you that you're beautiful
I would hold you in my arms
if you ever were afraid
I could write you a song
and we could sing it together
I would whiper in your ear,
"I love you"
I would never ever leave you
As long as I were what you wanted

And sometimes all you need is a friend
When you feel so alone
Yeah, sometimes it hurts
When you have no one to love
