I told you once, I think I did
I told you once that I love you more than anything
I see you now, look in your eyes
They look through me, they look on to another side

How can you see these things and not be there, truly be there
How can I even ask you why
Thoughts run, mind flies as I ask you
Can you be there
You say ohŠ.

You told me once, I think you did
You said you¹d hold me once, once I knew more than I ever could
Til that day, til that hour
I wait, lord I pray, while holding on to another¹s arm

How can you say these things and not be there, truly be there
How can you even ask me why
Thoughts run, mind flies as you ask me
Can I be there
I say ohŠ

I told you once, I know I did
I told you once that all we need is honesty
Look to me, look in my eyes
Look for me and i¹ll be there by your side

How can I say these things and not be there, truly be there
How can I even ask you why
Thoughts run, mind flies and I ask me
Will I be there
I say ohŠ.stop asking
Stop asking why
