I See You Copyright 2004: Second Wind Ain't got no picket fence like on the TV screen But out front sits the picnic bench my Nanny always dreamed It wasn't much, it was just enough to see your whole life through And now everytime I start to cry 'Cause when I see it, I see you As far as one could see was the limit to this land I remember that old maple tree, how proud it used to stand But now it's gone far from the farm and the acres are too few It seems all the time I wonder why When I see it, I see you I drift away in time to the past when you were here With a smiling face and a warm embrace to comfort crying tears What I wouldn't give to tell you all the things I plan to do To keep this house a monument Of what I see when I see you The cracks there in the sidewalk are growing longer everyday And the cornfeilds try to talk, but I can't hear what they say 'Cause they're gone for good and if I could I'd bring them back real soon And now everytime I close my eyes And try when I see you |
