What Love Really Means by JJ Heller

He cries in the corner where nobody sees
He's the kid with the story no one would believe

He prays every night
Dear God won't you please
Could you send someone here who will love me?

Who will love me for me
Not for what I have done
Or what I will become
Who will love me for me
'Cause nobody has shown me what love
What love really means
What love really means...

Her office is shrinking a little each day
She's the woman whose husband has run away
She'll go to the gym after working today
Maybe if she was thinner
Then he would've stayed

And she says: Who will love me for me
Not for what I have done
Or what I will become
Who will love me for me
'Cause nobody has shown me what love
What love really means
What love really means

He's waiting to die as he sits all alone
He's the man in a cell who regrets what he's done
He utters a cry from the depths of his soul
Oh Lord, forgive me, I wanna go home

Then he heard a voice somewhere deep inside
And it said
I know you've murdered and I know you've lied
And I have watched you suffer all of your life
And now that you're listening I'll tell you that I...
I will love you for you
Not for what you have done
Or what you will become
I will love you for you
I will give you the love
The love that you never knew
Love you for you
Not for what you have done
Or what you will become
I will love you for you
I will give you the love
The love that you never knew
