I Get Lonely Too

            I know I’m not pretty
            I was born like this

I’m not the kind of girl

Men long to kiss

But I’ve got feelings

Just like you

Don’t stare at me that way 

I get lonely too

I may  not be smart

Not the way that you are

But sometimes I still shine 

As bright as any  star

And sometimes I  wish

You could stand in my shoes

You wouldn’t stare at me that way

If you were lonely too

Now I don’t mind the rain

It washes things clean

And I don’t have to worry

It might wash away my dreams

            I know I’m not pretty
            I was born like this

I’m not the kind of girl

Men long to kiss

But I’ve got feelings

Just like you

Don’t stare at me that way 

I get lonely too
