i am here (june 17, 2010)

i know where you are tonight
but i won’t come to you
instead i’ll sing a melody
and hope you hear the tune

i passed by your house today
can you believe i didn’t cry
i thought how close i was to where you are
held my breath and closed my eyes

i am here if you’ll have me
i am here if you’ll hurt me
i am here if you’ll want me
i am here

i can’t call you
and i won’t come back
turn in the drive and knock on your door
no, i’ll just sing and pray my song
finds its way into your heart

because i am here if you’ll have me
i am here if you’ll hurt me
i am here if you’ll want me
and take all i have to give
i am here if you’ll hate me
i am here if you’ll haunt me
i am here if you want to break a heart again
i am here

i am here if you’ll have me
i am here if you’ll hurt me
i am here if you’ll want me
and love me another time
i am here if you’ll hate me
i am here if you’ll haunt me
i am here if you need someone to hold tonight
i am here

i’m stuck right here
i’ll stay right here
don’t ask me why
oh i’m here
