Here
For so many years
I wasn’t there for you
And I thought I was right
There were so many times
I thought I might be wrong
And those were the only times I was right
After all these years
I’m ready to admit
I should have always been there for you
I’m here now
And I’m not going anywhere
But you’re not sure where you want to be
It might be too late
Can you trust me?
Do you love me?
Will you be here for me too?
I don’t know where you are
And you’re not sure either
I can’t say I blame you
But after all these years
I’m going to keep being right here
Waiting for you
It's the one thing I know is right
