from How Did You Find Me Here?
...The night I fell in sorrow
I knew I was alone
A dozen good-time friendships
But my heart is still unknownI thought I saw your footsteps
In the sand along the shore
And I mumbled empty phrases
That sang so well beforeChorus
Now inches from the water
About to disappear
I feel you behind me
How did you find me here?
I couldn't reach for rescue
I hid myself from you
I couldn't stand to see me
From your point of viewI knew I'd disappoint you
If I showed to you this child
Who is crying out inside me
Lost in the wildChorus
Now inches from the water
About to disappear
I feel you behind me
How did you find me here?
I feel you behind me
Laughing in the water
Wash away the tears
I feel you behind me
How did you find me here?
I feel you behind me
But how did you find me here?...© David Wilcox, all rights reserved
