Lyrics
Look at me
Finally on my own again and free
I wasn?t one for sentiment
I held it all inside
My soul had nearly died
?Till there was you
Look at you
Wandering and wondering what to do
You didn?t want to be alone
And didn?t want to stay
You couldn?t find a way
To see it through
(Chorus)
Neither one was looking for
Another life to share
Neither one believed in love
It caught us unaware
You needed just to get away
And find a place for you
I was there too
Hand in hand
Tentative at first we made a stand
And faced whatever life could deal
And tried to find the key
Together, separately
We made our way
And so we dared
Standing in the fire unaware
Terrified of getting close
But couldn?t leave the dance
Had to take the chance
Another day
(Chorus)
And when the world was closing in
And times were getting rough
And I just couldn?t seem to win
My best not good enough
You told me then to just hang on
Our strength will see us through
I need you too
Look at us
As hopeless as we used to say it was
Neither one of us could think of
Being vulnerable again
Letting someone in
And life renewed
Yet here we are
Didn?t think we?d make it quite this far
There?d been so many times before that
Love was in and out
The sorrow and the doubt
?Till there were two
(Chorus)
And when you reach out in the night
To see if I am there
I realize how much I missed
That I?d been unaware
The times that I?m fulfilled in life
Are when I?m holding you
I love you too
