Lyrics

Watching
© Robert Heath 2005

Its not because you?re always at your best
As if the world won?t allow you any less
Baby it?s not the perfect picture you try to paint
No one is a saint

Its not awards its not applause
Sometimes it?s the flaws

Chorus
Although you sparkle when the spotlight?s on
For me you shine the brightest when its gone
The private moments when you?re hiding nothing
The struggles when you?re feeling low
The tears that you try not to show
Its what I see when you don?t know . . .
I?m watching
(That?s what makes me love you so)

It?s how you stand firm and go against the flow
And do the right thing when your heart says so
It?s in the moments when you often forget yourself
To cry for someone else

To think that?s weak would be so wrong
It?s just what makes you strong

That?s the part that fills my heart with pride
Till I can feel it well up in my eyes
