All i needed was....

All I needed was a shoulder to lean on
I would never have soiled it with my tears
Just a place to rest my weary head
Just as I offered you mine

All I needed was someone to acknowledge my pain
I would never have caused you no harm
Just a word or two to soothe and heal
Just as I soothed and healed you

All I needed was to talk to someone who would listen
I would never have taken too much time
Just an ear to whisper my fears
Just as I heard your whispered fears

All I needed was a friend to share a laugh and a smile
I guess I was wrong for everything is conditional
There is no unconditional
A laugh for laughter
A smile for each smile
A tear for each tear
But no friend for a friend
