While You Were Here - Eric Benét, Kevin "K.D" Davis

Through this veil of tears

I can see what was suppose to be

Now it’s all clear

Love from you was so real, so

True, genuine

Stronger than time

Wipe your tears away

Kiss you every morning

Hear every word you had to say

Are all the things i should have done

While you were heere

And now the foolish boy has grown

Into this man I’m sorry you’ve

Never known

I’m not afraid to love

'Cause every beat of my heart

Echoes all those memories from way

Back when

And the man I should have been

Faded dreams of you and me

And of our little family

Gone forever

My God in heaven

Before the gift of clarity

We pay the price of misery

Why please tell me why

Her mommy’s gone away

But in her eyes I see you more each day

How can I repay

All your love unreturned

From so long, long ago

Now i know

Alternate chorus:

I’ll wipe her tear away

Kiss her every morning

Hear every word she has to say

Do all the things that you

Would do if you were here

Brighten her rainy day

Catch her when she’s fallen

Say I love you each and every day

Do all the things that you

Would do if you were here
