WHAT CAN I DO…

What can I do,I thought,when you told me about your day
Obviously it didn’t go very well “it was fine” is all you would say
Everyone knows what “fine” means when it comes with a certain tone
I just knew right away “fine” was not what I heard while we talked tonight on the phone
I tried to let you know you could if you wanted to tell me all about it
“You wouldn’t understand” is what you said but I truly doubt it
I may come off as not the most intelligent person thay you know
That doesn’t mean I can’t figure it out as the conversation would flow
The many things I could be for you if only you’d give me a shot
I may not do things the same as others but let me show you what I got
These ears not only hear you but they listen to what is said
So just start talking to me and it may ease the stress from your head
No matter what is going on each day of the week
Always know you can count on me when a companion is what you seek
I hope you can see it in my eyes and hear it in my voice
That when you need someone to talk to I can be your first choice
So call me up any time if you feel down or alone
I’m never more than a click away from your cell phone.
