What About Me
Kenny Rogers & Kim Carnes Lyrics

I see you here with me
I am in your presence, and I am acknowledging your existence.

I've waited all my life
I have been waiting for the love of my life for a very long time.

For someone like you
I have been looking for someone with your qualities and traits.

Someone to give my heart and soul to.
I am looking for a significant other who I can dedicate my love and life to.

I look into your eyes
I am gazing into your eyes and admiring your beauty.

Your love for me
I am feeling the love that you have for me.

Was such a welcome surprise
I was pleasantly surprised by how much you love me.

I think at last I've found forever.
I believe that I have finally found a love that will last a lifetime.

Oh, What about me? ( I always need you )...
I am expressing my need for you and wondering if you feel the same way about me.

You were my love before
We have already been in love before.

But I need so much more of you.
I need more love and affection from you than I have received in the past.

Time after time
Repeatedly, over and over again.

I feel I'm losing my mind
I am experiencing intense emotions that make me feel like I am going crazy.

Or maybe this is
Perhaps these feelings are just a normal part of a romantic relationship.

What lovers must go through
Maybe every couple experiences these kinds of struggles in their relationship.

It never entered my mind
I never considered the possibility.

We could be wasting our time
Our relationship might not be worthwhile, and we could be wasting our lives on something that won't last.

What am I gonna do?
I don't know what to do about this situation.

What about me?, oh, What about me?.
I am questioning whether you are considering my feelings and needs in our relationship.

No reason to pretend
We don't need to pretend to be something we're not in this relationship.

True love affairs
Real, deep, and authentic relationships.

Don't have to come to an end
Our love doesn't have to have an expiration date.

The moment we don't
As soon as we stop trying to have all the answers.

Have all the answers.
We don't have to have everything figured out in order to make our love work.

I nearly go insane ( oh, I go insane )
Your love drives me crazy and makes me feel overwhelmed.

Each and every time
Every time without exception.

I hear you whisper my name ( I feel the same )
I feel the same way about you when I hear you saying my name.

When I'm around you.
Being near you has a profound effect on me.

But what about me? ( I'll always need you )
I am asking you to pay attention to me and consider my feelings in our relationship because I will always need you.

Oh, what about me? ( I'll always need you )
I need you to be there for me and care about me as much as I care about you.

This is so hard for me
I am struggling to express my emotions and feelings for you.

I wanted so much to be with you.
I desired to be in a relationship with you so desperately.

Time after time....
Over and over again, the same situation keeps arising in our relationship.
