- ...So many people-- So many depending on me to show them that someone cares if they live or die! And I want them-- I need them-- To need me! But sometimes I wonder if there's enough of me to go around... And if someone has to be short-changed of my feelings... If there have to be people who can't be told how important they are to me... Then it has to be the people I love-- Because I have to hope they already know how I feel! I know I don't say it often enough... I can't even remember the last time I told you... But... I love you.
