Lene Marlin - You Weren't There lyrics

She came home, just won the game Long time struggle she fulfilled her dream All she wanted was to make you proud, You weren't there He had his birthday few days ago He got some presents, a big party too And there were congratulation calls As the years before, not ever one from you You weren't there, distant, far away It's like this every day, they see you in their heads Wonder if you'll come Afraid to close their eyes, and miss you once again She cut herself on a piece of paper It didn't hurt, but she saw the blood She could need that embrace, you weren't there Did he have to cry louder, Would that make you hear him You see, his heart was broken, for the first time You weren't there, distant, far away It's like this every day, they see you in their heads Wonder if you'll come Afraid to close their eyes, and miss you once again Cannot turn back time, a wish yet to come true They're making up these stories about you You weren't there, distant, far away It's like this every day, they see you in their heads Wonder if you'll come Afraid to close their eyes, and miss you once again
