Lene Marlin - You Weren't There Lyrics

She came home just won the game Long time struggle she felt faint and dreary All she wanted was to make you proud You weren't there Had his birthday a few days ago He got some presents, a big party too And there were congratulation cards As it used to be for Not ever one from you You weren't there You stand far away It's like this every day I see it in that hand I wonder if you'll come Afraid to close the light And miss you once again She cut herself on that piece of paper It didn't hurt but she saw the blood She could need that embrace You weren't there Did he have to cry louder? Would that make you hear him? You see his heart was broken For the first time You weren't there You stand far away It's like this every day I see it in that hand I wonder if you'll come Afraid to close the light And miss you once again You cannot turn back time I wish that to come true They're making up these stories about you You weren't there You stand far away It's like this every day I see it in that hand I wonder if you'll come Afraid to close the light And miss you once again Miss you once again...
