"I'm I'll be...Look, I I don't know,
I feel a lot of distance and I
feel far away. I'll see you later..."
I have seen you born before me
I have watched you die
I have heard every word you've said, believe me
Leave no question in your mind
There is no brighter star to guide you
Don't look past me to the sun
The sun is I
I am the sun
She closed the door behind him
He wanders slowly to the car
And trying to lift his heavy heart
He says
"I feel bad about this.
I feel really bad about this.
Just, just let me feel bad about this."
'I'm through just getting by
"Listen I feel bad about this..."
Countless times a friend has told me
Watch out for the wave
And now it seems the sea will be my grave'
And still you swim to save me
Even though the water is much colder now
Even though the water is much colder now
Sometimes you can lack true intuition
Sometimes you can use a different point of view
I've found that in such a position
I could always come to you
(So when you are lonely)
I've seen you weep
(When you are tired)
And I have seen you tired and lonely
(I'll carry the cross with you)
But it only takes one heart
(My heart's here to)
To lift you up and send you on
(Send you on again)
Can you understand this life I'm showing you
(Take it from me)
Understand it's me, I'm giving you
I have seen you born before me
I have watched you die
I have heard every word you've said, believe me
I have no question in my mind
There's been no brighter star to guide me
Don't look past you to the sun
So don't look past me to the sun
The sun is
And so love is broken
They're asking me how can you help
When you don't even know how that feels
I don't need one thousand reasons
When someone starts to cry
When someone says my heart needs lifting
Don't ask how come
Ask how high
I have seen you born before me
I have watched you die
I have heard every word you said, believe me
I have no question in your mind
There's been no brighter star to guide me
Don't look past me to the sun
The sun is I
I have no question in my mind
(So when you are lonely)
There's been no brighter star to guide me
(When you are tired)
Don't look past me to the sun
(I'll carry the cross with you)
