Lyrics
To You
© Adam Beverly, 2000
Verse 1
To talk with you, to see you when I?m down
To live with you, in this screwed-up town
To eat with you, to sleep with you
Throw water upon your soul
To laugh with you, to love with you
To know you when you?re old
I don?t know what you are doing
I don?t know what you are doing
Verse 2
To talk with you, to see you when you hold your head so high
(It?s not that I don?t cry with every tear)
To laugh with you, to feel you when there?s no tears left to cry
(It?s not that I don?t cry with every tear)
Chorus
This is how I say to you, ?You?ve been on my mind.?
This is how I say to you, ?I?m trying to pass the time.?
I don?t know, I don?t know, I don?t know how strong I am
(This is how I say to you, this is how I am)
I don?t know, how to say good-bye
(This is how I say to you, ?I?m trying to pass the time.?)
To talk with you, to see you when I?m down
To live with you, in this screwed-up town
Throw water upon your soul
To laugh with you, to love with you
To know you when you?re old
Chorus
This is how I say to you, ?You?ve been on my mind.?
(This is how I say to you, this is how I am)
This is how I sing to you!
(I don?t know, I don?t know how strong I am)
This is how I say to you, ?You?ve been on my mind.?
(This is how I say to you, this is how I am)
This is how I sing to you!
(I don?t know, I don?t know how strong I am)
