I Should Have Been There To Inspire You |
Nothing I’d say or I could do |
Could move the mountains from your view |
Nothing I see or I could show |
There’s only darkness now I know |
I should have been there to inspire you |
Not paint your world a cold, cold blue |
I should have been there to inspire you |
I could have told you truthful too |
That I believed in you |
Told you truthful too |
I could have been there within your reach |
This is not self-pity of which I speak |
I never took time to see how you’d grown |
I never took the care it takes to know |
Never took the time to see what you’d found |
But always had the time to bring you down |
More than all this I do not know |
Only that love is here to show |
Someone a world, to be themselves |
A place to fall when all else fails |
And friends harsh words cut deep and sore |
But believe me mine will hurt me more |
In those moments before I sleep |
When I am truly alone to see |
I should have been there to inspire you |
Not paint your world a cold, cold blue |
I should have been there to inspire you |
I could have told you truthful too |
???- that I believed in you |
