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 |
