You Had to Be There

歌詞

I can do my best to tell you what it feels like in my skin You can't really know unless you've gone where he's been I can give you all the details, but you'd never understand What it means to let that go; slip right through your hands I guess you had to be there when she smiled Or had to feel the passion running wild Really know the woman and the child I guess you had to be there 'Til she stripped the layers off, seen into your soul Watched her make a diamond of a worthless piece of coal 'Til you've held an angel, then let her fly away You won't ever understand, no matter what I say I guess you had to be there when she smiled Or had to feel the passion running wild Really know the woman and the child I guess you had to be there I guess you had to be there when she smiled Or had to feel the passion running wild Really know the woman and the child I guess you had to be there I guess you had to be there when she smiled Or had to feel the passion running wild 'Til you walked in my shoes for a while, I guess you had to be there I guess you had to be there I guess you had to be there
