(Michael Nesmith)
|
I've known for a long time
|
The kind of girl you are.
|
Of a smile that covers teardrops,
|
The way your head yields to you heart.
|
Of things you've kept inside
|
That most girls couldn't bear.
|
I've known you for a long time
|
But I've just begun to care.
|
|
I've known of all the heartaches
|
I've known of all the pain.
|
I've seen you when the sun shines.
|
And I've seen you when it rains.
|
I've seen you make a look of love
|
From just an icy stare.
|
I've known you for a long time
|
But I've just begun to care.
|
|
I know I've been blind
|
To not have loved you all this time.
|
But the image of you wasn't clear.
|
I guess I've been standing too near.
|
|
Oh, it's taken me a while
|
But I have fin'ly found
|
What you are to me
|
And that's what really counts.
|
And what you are to me
|
Is something we can share.
|
I've known you for a long time
|
But I've just begun to care.
