You Matter to Me

I could find the whole meaning of life in those sad eyes
 They've seen things you never quite say, but I hear
 Come out of hiding, I'm right here beside you
 And I'll stay there as long as you'll let me
 Because you matter to me
 Simple and plain and not much to ask from somebody
 You matter to me
 I promise you do, you, you matter too
 I promise you do, you'll see
 You matter to me
 It's addictive the minute you let yourself think
 The things that I say just might matter to someone
 All of this time I've been keeping my mind on the running away
 And for the first time, I think I'd consider the stay
 Because you matter to me
 Simple and plain and not much to ask from somebody
 You matter to me
 I promise you do, you, you matter too
 I promise you do, you'll see?
 You matter to me
 
 "Dear baby
 I hope someday
 Somebody wants to hold you for twenty minutes straight
 They don't pull away, they don't look at your face
 And they don't try to kiss you
 All they do is wrap you up in their arms and hold on tight
 Without an ounce of selfishness in it
 I hope you become addicted, baby
 I hope you become addicted to sayin' things
 Having them matter to someone"
 You matter to me
 Simple and plain and not much to ask from somebody
 You matter to me
 I promise you do
 (Come out of hiding I'm right here beside you) You, you matter to
 (As long as you'll have me) I promise you do, you matter to me
 You'll see
 You matter to me
