I can do my best to tell you what it feels like in my skin
|
You can't really know unless you've gone where he's been
|
I can give you all the details, but you'd never understand
|
What it means to let that go; slip right through your hands
|
|
I guess you had to be there when she smiled
|
Or had to feel the passion running wild
|
Really know the woman and the child
|
I guess you had to be there
|
|
'Til she stripped the layers off, seen into your soul
|
Watched her make a diamond of a worthless piece of coal
|
'Til you've held an angel, then let her fly away
|
You won't ever understand, no matter what I say
|
|
I guess you had to be there when she smiled
|
Or had to feel the passion running wild
|
Really know the woman and the child
|
I guess you had to be there
|
|
I guess you had to be there when she smiled
|
Or had to feel the passion running wild
|
Really know the woman and the child
|
I guess you had to be there
|
|
I guess you had to be there when she smiled
|
Or had to feel the passion running wild
|
'Til you walked in my shoes for a while,
|
I guess you had to be there
|
I guess you had to be there
|
I guess you had to be there
|

You Had To Be There
