I should have listened more and listened well |
|
I should have been your shelter in the rain |
|
I should have touched you more and held you closer |
|
'Til I felt it melt your quiet pain |
|
Should I have had more time to spare for you |
|
should have been there for you, to care for you |
|
with more love, more love |
|
I could have given you the gifts I threw to total strangers |
|
passing through my nights |
|
I could have cuddled near your gentle flame |
|
been warmer there than in these glaring lights |
|
Should have had more time to spare for you |
|
should have been there for you, to care for you |
|
with more love, more love, more love |
|
What would it have taken if only could have taken |
|
my eyes off me for a while |
|
I'd have seen the hurtin' hidin' just behind the curtain of your smile |
|
oh, I swear I didn't know, which goes to show |
|
How long it takes a man to be a man |
|
but if I say enough |
|
and try enough |
|
and pray enough |
|
and cry enough |
|
I can still can |
|
have more time to spare for you |
|
always be there for you, to care for you |
|
with more love, more love, more love needed just more love |
