to loved ones in distress

Life is hard

Life is rough

I understand

Times are tough

And I know

That you're really hurting

I know that

Life has got you down

The dark clouds

Are hanging around

And deep inside

You're thinking you deserve it

But, my dear, no matter what you've done

I need for you to know that you are loved

I love you

Even when you're bad

I love you

When you make me mad

I love you

When you break my heart

Even when we're both

Falling apart

I love you
