| Sure you’ve come a long way
|
| From the backstage of the past
|
| Till you found out one day
|
| All their assertions just didn’t last
|
| Their actions spoke louder than their words
|
| Your dreams and needs seemed so absurd
|
| Too entangled to see what you went through
|
| Have you been loved
|
| Like you need it?
|
| Have you been loved
|
| Like you deserve it?
|
| The way you look tonight
|
| With this sadness in your eyes
|
| I wish I could turn back the hands
|
| Of time and make them look at you
|
| The way that I see you
|
| The beauty and love that you shines in your heart
|
| Yesterday’s ghosts sometimes still haunt you
|
| But your spirit keeps up the fight
|
| So brave, so strong — it’s no wonder
|
| That you made it through your childhood nights
|
| Now I’m here to stay with you
|
| And whatever you’re going through
|
| Even if some tears should fall
|
| I’ll be there whenever you call
|
| The past has gone now, my love
|
| You’re walking away from what they’ve done
|
| And together we’re facing a new morning sun
|
| Have you been loved… |
