All you really need is someone to be here
Someone who’ll never let you disappear
You were talkin’ but the words came
No one reaches, no one transcends
From somebody else
And I will be that witness to your life
This maybe just a softer place to fall
All you really need is someone to be here
Another day I thank the Lord that you
Someone who’ll never let you disappear
You kissed my teeth and then we both hid
And I will be that witness to your life
Someone will always call you home
They just learn to live with it
Up the road, your car comes into view
And I will be that witness to your life
You should never have to be alone
Fought every urge, I told you to run
And from a furlong I just smile at you
And I will be that witness to your life
I was smilin’ like a little kid
All you really need is someone to be here
They think this is where life begins and ends
And wandered a bit
Someone said kiss her and so you did
Stared down the barrel of an empty gun
Stopped listenin’ to all your friends
And I will be that witness to your life
Inside each other’s arms
But somebody will answer when you call
You got that job and join the union
Someone who’ll never let you disappear
Baby, I will be that witness to your life
