Hello all:
She’s Already There
1.
I’d say I’d like to show you all the people here who know you
And if you want to go you know you’d only need to ask and we’d be where
But she’s already there
I’d tell her very slowly oh that I would love her wholly
Tell her always call me and please tell me ‘til she’d die that she would care
But she’s already there
But she wasn’t there to pick me up, to put me down and tell me right from wrong
And she ain’t here to kiss goodnight and say ‘sweetheart please hold me tight’
And now, I guess I’ll never learn
2.
Tell me what to do because I haven’t got a clue
And I must confess bitter-sweetly for the times I had to lie when they asked where
‘Cos she’s already there
But I’ll take you softly creeping to the place where she’s still sleeping
But I’ll be gently weeping for the times I realised she couldn’t care
‘Cos she’s already there
But she wasn’t there to lift me up, to help me down or make me carry on
And she ain’t here to kiss goodnight and say ‘sweetheart please hold me tight’
And now I guess I’ll never learn
Is there a heaven?

There’s been so many years and there’s been oh so many tears
Because I did not get enough of that selfless and utter love she was to bear
‘Cos she’s already there
Who would I be now if she was here to show me how
Well I’d gladly die if I could hear her say one more time that she still cares
But she’s already there
But she’s not here to help me out, to reign me in or do without
And she ain’t here to tell me off, as if it’s what I’m dreaming of
And she ain’t here to be the one, to say I gotta carry on
And now, I guess I’ll never tell
Oh no...

Outro
Did you see the little child there lying on the street
Did you ever think about me?
Little boy there crying as he drowns in his sleep
Did you ever think about me?
No-one there to pray my soul to keep
Did you ever think about me?
A door creaks in the night, no-one looking over me
Did you ever think about me?
