[Verse]
Am F
He cries in the corner where nobody sees,
C G
he's the kid with the story no one would believe.
Am F
He prays every night, "Dear God won't you please,
C G
could you send somone here who will love me?"
[Chorus]
C G
Who will love me for me?
Am F
Not for what I have done or what I will become.
C G
Who will love me for me?
Am F
'Cause nobody has shown me what love, what love really means.

[Verse]
Am F
Her office is shrinking a little each day,
C G
she's the woman whose husband has run away.
Am F
She'll go to the gym after working today,
C G
Maybe if she was thinner then he would've stayed.
And she says. . .
[Chorus]
C G
Who will love me for me?
Am F
Not for what I have done or what I will become.
C G
Who will love me for me?
Am F
'Cause nobody has shown me what love, what love really means.

[Verse]
Am F
He's waiting to die as he sits all alone,
C G
he's a man in a cell who regrets what he's done.
Am F
He utters a cry fron the depths of his soul,
C G
"Oh Lord, forgive me, I want to go home."
[Bridge]
Am F
The he heard a voice, somewhere deep inside
C G
and it said, "I know you've murdered and I know you've lied
Am F
I have watched you suffer all of your life
C G
and now that you'll listen, I'll tell you that I. . .
[Chorus]
C G
I will love you for you.
Am F
Not for what you have done or what you will become
C G
I will love you for you
Am F
I will give you the love, the love that you never knew
C G
I will love you for you.
Am F
Not for what you have done or what you will become
C G
I will love you for you
Am F
I will give you the love, the love that you never knew
