You Were Always There

歌詞

Can't remember my first mem'ry of you you were always there And now I know I never knew you well But I was just a kid and you were always there to pick me up everytime I fell And you always warmed a blanket to wrap around my feet When you tucked me into bed to say my prayers And I'll bet I never thanked you among all the other things That I took for granted cause you were always there Yes you were always there so we never took the time For you to tell me your dreams and me to tell you mine And we never took the time to talk of love and happiness And life and death and heartache and pain and loneliness Why I don't even know if you were happy or if you could have been Or if you could have one wish what would it be Or what would you do differently if you could live again And were you glad that you gave life to me And I'd give anything to tell you am I glad that you were born But you'll never hear the words I've learned to say Cause before I got to know you died of loneliness And they tell me I grew up and moved away Yes you were always there so we never took the time For you to tell me your dreams and me to tell you mine There were so many things that could have been but now we'll never share Cause kids don't know much and you were always there No kids don't know much and you were always there
