Sung by Sarah White, the song's about an insecure girl and a macho man.
I'm easily inspired either by personal experiences, things said in conversation, being given a challenge, or being moved or amused by something. Many genres.

Lyrics
I was independent, strong and free,
But I needed you to love me.
You were here a while, but hardly said what was on your mind,
I never knew what you were thinking, even though you were so kind,
I wasn’t asking for the world, we’ve both of us been there,
But I needed some reaction, when showing that I cared.
Everything felt right…walking by your side,
Everything felt good…with your body next to mine,
It’s a cryin’ shame why we had to part,
‘Cause you never got to learn how to feed my sentimental heart.
You’d be gone a while, then we’d be back together like a rolling tide,
You told me you had feelings, but kept them all inside,
There were strong emotions but the differences remained,
I could have bought a thousand roses, and you’d have stayed the same.
Everything felt right, walking by your side,
Everything felt good, with your body next to mine,
It’s a crying shame why we had to part,
‘Cause you never got to learn how to feed my sentimental heart.
Bridge
Looking back on what we had, if you ever miss me
Enough to say the things I long to hear,
Let your feelings show….come back and kiss me,
Show your love and talk away my tears.
I was independent, strong and free,
But I needed you to love me.
