Herbert - You Saw It All lyrics

You're not my only friend Not even my best You're almost of essential though Along with the rest You're not my only sense You're one of a few You know when to leave alone You show me the view Allies across the years You witnessed the best Gave drainage for all my tears And closed on request You saw before me when I knew it all You turned the other way Watching me fall You see it all If when you're leaving me Remember me this If we're dependent still We cannot miss You're maybe the last to go Probably the first Show me a little place Where i can grow worse And as you retreat from me The closer i come Further from yesterday Nearer the sun And though i may never see All that you did Promise me nothing more You saw it all
