You were beside me
You were smiling
You looked so happy
that I smiled too
You were innocent
You were kind
Sometimes you cried
and I felt bad
Back then, when I sought to be strongest
My only weakness was you
It was you, yes you
It was you
I wish I could see you now, as the nights roll by
Yes time flies by, and I wish you were here
You were proud
You had it all
I would never accept
the lies you told
Now, as I watch the sunrise
Ah, the smell of oil, the morning light
There's but one shadow cast on the asphalt
Back then, when things were always hard
My only strength was you
It was you, yes you
It was you
I remember, you were there
You were there, yes you were there
I want to see you
But I can't
It was always you
