PAT WHITEMAN Something That I Wanted You To Know
Sorry if I woke you
I’m callin’ kind of late
These words, they don’t come easy
But I’m trying to be brave
I don’t expect an answer,
There’s no need to reply
Just to hear you listenin’
Is like a lullaby
After all this time
My face must be a shadow in your dreams
The years they go by
But I still remember every little thing
There has never been a moment
That I haven’t loved you so
It’s just something that I wanted you to know
Do you ever miss me
Or wonder how I am
I guess I’m pretty happy
But nothing like I planned
Remember when you held me
How it always made me cry
I’ll never let you go
And I don’t even know if I want to try
After all this time
My face must be a shadow in your dreams
The years they go by
But I still remember every little thing
There has never been a moment
That I haven’t loved you so
It’s just something that I wanted you to know
Something that I wanted you to know
I needed you so bad
I didn’t know what I had
You were the best I had known
But I had to be alone
And though my heart will finally mend
The way I feel will never end
After all this time
My face must be a shadow in your dreams
The years they go by
But I still remember every little thing
There has never been a moment
That I haven’t loved you so
It’s just something that I wanted you to know
Something that I wanted you to know
I wanted you to know
