I Can See It Now Lyrics
Mary Chapin Carpenter
(mary chapin carpenter)
I can see it now, walking by myself
And suddenly youre there walking with somebody else
I can see it now, whats right up ahead
A scene Ive played a thousand times over in my head
I can see it now, it isnt just a dream
Cant shake myself awake, cant fall right back to sleep
Face to face I come right up to the truth
I can see it now, Im still not over you
I can hear it now, your voice saying my name
Its too late for me to walk the other way
I can hear it now, asking how Ive been
Oh and by the way have you met my friend
I can hear it now, a breaking all apart
A strange familiar sound thats coming from my heart
Feeling just as bad as the day that it was new
I can see it now, Im still not over you
When youre out of sight, baby youre still on my mind
Youre much too hard to lose, youre too easy to find
Like a bottle to a drunk, like trouble to a fool
Ive only ever seen, just what Ive wanted to
I can feel it now, as you walk away
Something left unsaid and the nothing left to say
I can feel it now like weather in my bones
Before it even comes, before I even know
I can feel it now, the empty and the ache
That bitter little pill that I dont want to take
Instead Id swallow all the pride I ever knew
To crawl back if you asked, all that I would do
I can see it now
