When I wake up in the morning, feeling depressed

Thinking of you and my head is a mess

Mid-afternoon or late at night

My thoughts are on you and I'm still uptight

The words I want to say to you just never come

And if they did they might just walk away

I know sometimes I act silly, playing dumb

But a part of me wants to grab you and say

I need your smiling face forever to be near me

I need your simple beauty to help me through

I need your loving heart to warm me and to guide me

I need some emotion that is true

Don't you know I need inspiration from you

The world's so crazy, I can't understand

Exploiting and lying, man killing man

Enemies won't talk, won't give me a break

No forgiveness for past mistakes

No way to fight when people pound you into the ground

They'll pick you up just to see you fall

When I finally leave this place, get my face out of town

They may see me stumble but I'll never crawl

I need your smiling face forever to be near me

I need your simple beauty to help me through

I need your loving heart to warm me and to guide me

I need some emotion that is true

Don't you know I need inspiration from you
