There It Is

I first saw you standing in a group

One evening when my troupe was done performing

Something 'bout you took my breath away

And on that day I knew that you were for me

But you weren't for me, were you

I took it wrong, I wrote a song

And then another and another and another

But it's just as well, Heaven or hell, it doesn't matter

What we could have been together

So neither of us knew the ins and outs

The next two weeks my life was all about you

And then one night you had me on the line

You told me you just didn't have time for me

No time for me, did you

I took it wrong, I wrote a song

And then another and another and another

But it's just as well, Heaven or hell, it doesn't matter

What we could have been together

It might have been shock or fear

Or the many years of missteps and pain

I was humbled again by the stillness

That should have been war

So my affection lives another day

But oddly babe, it's more like you're my sister

Our history has warped my tender brain

But I'll never complain because I'm better

You made me better, didn't you

I took it wrong, I wrote a song

And then another and another and another

But it's just as well, Heaven or hell, it doesn't matter

What we could have been together

I took it wrong, I wrote a song

And then another and another and another

But it's just as well, Heaven or hell, it doesn't matter

What we could have been together

So there it is

So there it is

So there it is

So there it is
